I am a researcher with a keen interest in understanding the impacts of climate change and anthropogenic pressures on organisms, particularly those inhabiting ecologically sensitive and restricted habitats such as mountaintops and islands. Currently, I am working as a Project Associate-I, with Dr. Manchi Shirish S. in the project, “Conservation of Nicobar Megapode” at Sálim Ali Centre for Ornithology and Natural History, India. Previously, I have contributed to projects assessing biodiversity and ecosystem services across various landscapes in different agroclimatic zones of Central India. I also have a keen interest arthropod diversity as a food source for birds along an altitudinal gradient, with the aim of understanding its influence on the altitudinal shifts in bird distribution in response to climate change. Beyond research, I am passionate about travel, nature photography, and exploring diverse culinary traditions.
