Welcome!
Hello! I am currently pursuing a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). My doctoral research focuses on understanding reactivity, structure, (electro)chemistry, and mechanical coupling to transport and charge transfer in lithium solid electrolytes and interfaces. Apart from my thesis research, I have expertise in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) electrochemical devices and have collaborated with industry partners, including LG Chem and Google, on projects such as the discovery of novel solid ionic conductors.
Before joining MIT, I earned my Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IITR) in 2020. I was awarded the Department Gold Medal in recognition of my academic excellence. In addition to my academic interests, I enjoy swimming, running, music, and stargazing.
