I am a social media influencer, mostly on Instagram and YouTube. I make content that shares my life as a researcher, a woman in STEM, and an international student. I post content that motivates and inspires young minds to pursue STEM.
I also make content around travel and lifestyle to emphasise that life as a PhD student can be tough, but a good work-life balance is key to success. I talk about mental health challenges as a woman in academia and how to persevere through them.

I was profiled by Jansatta for groundbreaking contributions to space exploration. The article highlights my work with the European Space Agency on the search for life on Mars. I talk about how clay minerals play a significant role in the search for life. I also talk about rover operations.
The article talks about my role in NASA's Artemis III mission, and my collaborations with the Canadian Space Agency's Lunar Rover Mission.
This article highlights my journey as a woman in STEM and serves as a motivational piece for women in India.
I was featured on a local Indian newspaper, Jagran News about my research presented at the 55th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in The Woodlands, TX, USA.
My research investigated the nature and quantity of lunar polar volatiles, specifically water ice, using the Chandrayaan - 2 Imaging Infrared Spectrometer (IIRS) in the lunar south pole.
This work supports the recent missions that are and will be sent to the south pole of the Moon in search for water ice, including Canada's Lunar Rover Mission and NASA's Artemis mission, which will take astronauts to the Moon after 50 years.
This article highlights my role as a woman in STEM and inspires young girls in India.
