About Me

I am a doctoral scholar in the Department of Applied Mechanics and Biomedical Engineering at IIT Madras. My research has been supported by the Prime Minister’s Research Fellowship (PMRF) scheme, the most prestigious fellowship for doctoral research in India. The work focuses on solid mechanics and materials science, specializing in multiscale materials modeling and simulations. I use tools like Density Functional Theory and Molecular Dynamics to understand how microstructural features influence the mechanical and electrochemical behavior of materials.
