About

As an Associate Manager and Team Lead at Siemens Gamesa, I am responsible for developing solutions for offshore wind turbines and leading a team. My primary focus is on condition monitoring systems for offshore wind turbines, ensuring their optimal performance and reliability. Previously, I served as a Lead Control Engineer with a specialization in GE Excitation and Static Starter Systems at GE Power, Hyderabad for 6.5 years. During my time there, I gained extensive experience in power systems engineering and contributed to the success of various projects. Passion drives me in my work, and I am always eager to connect with other professionals in the field. I believe that teamwork is crucial in both social and professional settings, and I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with my colleagues to achieve common goals. I hold a Master's degree in Instrumentation and Control from Nirma University, where I graduated with good grades in 2015. Apart from academics, I am an active participant in social and extracurricular activities, which further enhances my overall skill set. With a strong background in power systems engineering and a passion for innovation, I am committed to driving positive impact in the renewable energy industry. I am always open to new opportunities and networking with like-minded professionals. Feel free to connect with me to discuss potential collaborations or opportunities for mutual growth.
