About me.

Driven by a passion for sustainable solutions, I am a final-year PhD candidate in Civil Engineering at IIT Delhi, researching innovative strategies for municipal solid waste management. My goal is to contribute to effective and environmentally responsible waste management practices. I have a B.Tech and M.Tech in Chemical Engineering.

My research focuses on finding smarter, sustainable ways to handle urban waste and make waste systems more efficient and eco-friendly.

My Statistics.

♻️ 8,000+ kg

In the past 3 years, I’ve collected and studied over 8,000 kilograms of municipal solid waste across Tier 1 and Tier 2 Indian cities—data that’s driving better waste segregation and recycling models in my research.
