About

I am passionate about analysing industrial problems and the scientific techniques to handle them. I did a PhD in Operations Research, which has the depth of science, application of engineering and power of scientific computing. My academic profile includes two master degrees in Mathematics and several publications in internal journals and other forums. I joined in EY-GTH Data Sciences Team after completing PhD in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research from IITB-Monash Research Academy (a partnership program between IIT Bombay and Monash University, Australia). In EY-GTH, I am involved in predictive modelling, statistical analysis, discrete-event simulation and supply chain management. Prior to PhD, I had worked two years on automating and validating different processes designed for Model Based Control System Development (MBCSD), primarily using Matlab and Simulink. My strong points: Data Science, Operations Research, Optimization, Applied Mathematics, Math Modelling, Affinity towards Open source, Exposure to different data science tools and programming languages
