About

I am currently pursuing my postgraduate degree in Forestry at the esteemed Forest Research Institute, Dehradun. My studies have been increasingly passion-based, with regard to wildlife, climate change, GIS, and sustainability. Through science-based work, I would like to contribute to the habitat in practical rather than theoretical terms. My key interests lie in the impacts of environmental changes on wildlife and ecosystems and using GIS tools for habitat mapping and ecological assessments. I also have experience in scientific writing, secondary data extraction and analysis, and working with GIS software to support conservation projects. I have an article in the Proceedings of the Zoological Survey, and my research work, done under the Wildlife Institute of India, will be published shortly. I always welcome opportunities that will help achieve my objectives of biodiversity conservation and sustainability
