About

As an academician with 8 years of dedicated teaching experience and 7 years of research experience, I had the opportunity of educating many number of students form past 8 years dedicatedly with helping them toward academic achievement. My research pursuits have been allowing me to contribute to the growth of knowledge in 6 years, in the field of Finite element method application in ground improvement techniques. This made me to publish multiple articles in reputed journals and to present my findings at notable conferences.

My goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of students, empowering them to reach their full potential as individuals and contributing members of society and  holistic development of students and prepares them for success in life beyond the classroom.
