I am an Earth scientist, focusing on a multitude of research projects that probe various aspects of this wonderful planet that we inhabit. Currently, I am working as a Research Fellow in the Tectonic Geodesy group at the Earth Observatory of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), where my research is centered on understanding earthquake hazards in South-East Asia.
I obtained my PhD from the University of Southern California (USC), Los Angeles. During my doctoral degree studies, I investigated the complex interactions between faults and folds, a commonly observed feature in tectonically active regions such as subduction zones and collisional margins.
I often leverage my engineering training to help me better understand Earth system processes. I have helped install seafloor monitoring stations in Mexico to understand crustal deformation under the oceans, and designed systems to measure greenhouse gas emissions by rice farming in Bali, Indonesia!
I also love to teach and I have lectured several geology courses in the last few years at both USC and NTU. I am always enthusiastic to interact with students and discuss cool science with young minds. I dedicate some of my free time to do outreach activities to promote Women in Science and Engineering, organize workshops and seminars, and social events.
In my leisure time, I binge on movies, TV series, and anime. I love reading books, traveling and exploring new places, cooking and baking. I occasionally play the Veena, an indian classical string musical instrument.
