I am currently working as a Faculty in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI), Mumbai, India. I have completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Goa, India. The research work during my PhD was carried out under the supervision of Dr. Thaseem Thajudeen and Dr. Anirudha Ambekar. I completed my M.Tech in Thermal Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India, under the guidance of Dr. Abhijit Guha. I have always been drawn to the environment and sustainability, and I hope to actively contribute to sustainable development. Therefore, my primary research interest lies in understanding the physics of efficient and clean energy utilization during the combustion of liquid fuels, and in reducing emissions and aerosol particulates from various combustion sources, with the aim of addressing the crucial issue of air pollution.
