I am currently working as an Assistant Professor of Chemistry at ICFAI University, Himachal Pradesh. I completed my Ph.D. in Chemistry from Shoolini University (India's No.1 Private University). Prior to my current appointment, I gained academic and research experience through teaching and research engagements, which strengthened my expertise in material synthesis, characterization techniques and environmental chemistry.
My research contributions have received international recognition, and I have been listed in the Stanford-Elsevier Global Ranking of Top 2% Scientists (2025) and World's Top 5% Scientists by SciRank Global Registry (2025). I have published 41 articles in reputed peer-reviewed international journals, 10 Book Chapters and actively contribute to the academic community as both an author and reviewer.
I serve as a Guest Editor for the Journal of Molecular Structure (IF: 4.7, Q2) (Elsevier). Additionally, I am a reviewer for several high-impact international journals, including Advanced Composites and Hybrid Materials (IF: 23.2, Q1); Journal of Energy Storage (IF: 10.7, Q1); Current Opinion in Green and Sustainable Chemistry (IF: 9.1, Q1); Journal of Hazardous Materials: Plastics (IF: 9.0, Q1); International Journal of Biological Macromolecules (IF: 8.7, Q1); Food Engineering Reviews (IF: 8.5, Q1); Industrial Crops and Products (IF: 5.9, Q1); Inorganic Chemistry Communications (IF: 5.9, Q1); Journal of Polymers and the Environment (IF: 5.6, Q1); Cellulose (IF: 4.6, Q1); Discover Materials (IF 6.2, Q1); Journal of Molecular Structure (IF: 4.6, Q2); Biocatalysis and Agricultural Biotechnology (IF: 4.0, Q2); Scientific Reports (IF: 3.8, Q2); Polymer Bulletin (IF: 3.8, Q2); Clean Technologies and Environmental Policy (IF: 3.7, Q2); Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery (IF: 3.5, Q2); Journal of Inorganic and Organometallic Polymers and Materials (IF: 3.5, Q2); Journal of Porous Materials (IF: 3.1, Q2); Water, Air, & Soil Pollution (IF: 2.9, Q2); BioNanoScience (IF: 2.4, Q3) and Chalcogenide Letters (IF: 1.2, Q4) etc.
My academic and research interests focus on nanomaterials, photocatalysis, adsorption and sustainable environmental applications. I am committed to integrating research-driven insights into teaching and mentoring students toward analytical thinking and innovation.
