Food Safety & Compliance | Audit & Management Systems Learning | M.Sc. Microbiology | Ex-QA Intern at Amul

About

Quality systems aren't procedural checkboxes. They're the architecture that determines how consistently and safely an industry operates at scale. That realization changed the direction I'm building toward. I'm currently pursuing M.Sc. Microbiology (2024–2026) at J.C. Bose University, YMCA, Faridabad, with a focused interest in Food QA, Regulatory Affairs, and compliance systems across food and industrial sectors. My grounding in quality thinking started at Amul, where industrial training in dairy microbiology and QA documentation showed me how lab science connects directly to food safety decisions, operational consistency, and compliance outcomes on the plant floor. That exposure moved my thinking beyond routine lab work. I'm now building across compliance frameworks, audit practices, ESG, and industry standards while developing working knowledge of HACCP, GMP/GHP, documentation discipline, and operational quality culture. I look at quality not as a standalone function but as a system that holds operations together. What I bring is a cross-functional perspective that connects microbiology with process thinking and compliance awareness. Deliberately building toward the intersection of food safety, quality operations, and regulatory practice. Open to conversations in Food QA, Food Safety, Regulatory Affairs, Compliance, Audits, ESG in Food Industries, and Operational Quality. If you work in any of these spaces, I'd welcome the connection.
