About Me
I am an ardent chemical engineer interested in research and development. I believe in teaching-learning by
doing and I have honed my skills to reflect the same. With my exposure to the industrial way of operation
and respectable amount of research activities I will be an asset in my work place. I come with great
communication skills and my orientation towards detailed speculation make me an integral part of any
team I work with. I am quite capable of operating efficiently under pressurized environment and I look
forward to a balanced development in the sector I join for work. I believe that a small thought or act can
make herculean changes in any environment, hence I carefully think through my decisions which have
always led to positive outcomes. Positions which I have undertaken have shaped my personality
significantly inculcating habits of professionalism and administrative stances. My quick learning curve has
helped me scale up my positions in my career and develop a sense of inclusion and interest towards the
chemical engineering fraternity.
