Hi! I’m a researcher passionate about tackling tough challenges in everything from renewable energy to cutting-edge tech. I’m especially interested in designing measurement systems and analysis techniques that allow us to acquire and process data in ways we couldn’t before—finding new ways to pull more insights about the physical world. Originally from India, I grew up in the UK, studied Physics at Bristol, and completed my PhD at Oxford. I’m also interested in making science more accessible, especially for students from disadvantaged backgrounds—I know how much that support can matter! When I’m not in the lab, you can find me sketching with pencils, pens, or watercolours (still very much an amateur!).
