About

I am an agribusiness management postgraduate and UGC NET (Management) qualified researcher with a strong academic foundation in agriculture and a focused interest in women entrepreneurship, rural enterprise development, and agribusiness policy. My work is centered on understanding how women-led enterprises operate within resource-constrained environments, particularly in Jammu & Kashmir, and how institutional support systems, government schemes, and capacity-building initiatives influence their sustainability and growth. I have hands-on experience in primary data collection, survey design, stakeholder interviews, and quantitative and qualitative analysis, and I am actively engaged in transforming research findings into policy-relevant insights. My academic background enables me to bridge theory with ground realities in agribusiness and rural development. I am particularly interested in: • Women-led enterprises and micro-enterprises • Agribusiness entrepreneurship and MSMEs • Government schemes and institutional support mechanisms • Rural livelihoods and sustainable enterprise models In the long term, I aim to pursue a PhD and contribute to evidence-based policymaking, research, and capacity-building initiatives that strengthen rural and women-led enterprises. Open to research collaborations, policy discussions, internships, and development-sector opportunities.
