About

I am keenly interested in magnetic skyrmions, spintronics, magnetic memory devices, and superconductors using atomically engineered quantum materials. Passionate about experimental physics, I've been a Summer Research Fellow at the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bengaluru, and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras. In essence, my pursuit is not just limited to learning new techniques; it extends to making meaningful contributions to the scientific community by unlocking the potential of these powerful tools. Additionally, I share my love for science by volunteering at Sunday Science School in Pune.
