About

Chemistry, curiosity, and catalytic innovation. Hello there, I’m a research scholar in organic chemistry with a strong passion for transforming fundamental chemical ideas into meaningful scientific discoveries. My journey in chemistry began with a deep interest in organic synthesis and reaction methodologies, which I further explored during my internship at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay). During this period, I gained valuable hands-on experience in synthetic chemistry and research-oriented laboratory practices. Immediately after completing my master's degree, I began my PhD research, focusing on the design and development of nanocatalysts for catalytic transformations, particularly in coupling reactions. Earlier, during my M.Sc., I also had the opportunity to serve as a student faculty, assisting in academic and laboratory activities. In the laboratory, I enjoy designing reactions, synthesizing molecules, and solving complex chemical challenges. My technical expertise includes setting up the reaction, organic synthesis, catalyst development, column chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) for purification and reaction monitoring. During my doctoral journey, I successfully qualified the Karnataka State Eligibility Test (KSET), and I am honored to be a recipient of the Karnataka DST Fellowship supporting my PhD research. I am always eager to learn more. I am always interested in contributing my research skills to innovative scientific environments, industrial R&D teams, and collaborative research projects. If you are looking for a researcher with strong experience in organic synthesis, catalysis, and nanomaterial-based catalytic systems, I would be glad to connect and explore potential opportunities.
