About

Physics Major at Manipal Institute of Applied Physics, MAHE, and Co-Founder of Navmarg Research and Innovation Pvt. Ltd., working at the intersection of clean-water technology, arsenic removal, real-time water quality monitoring, biosensing, and molecular-scale contaminant–material interaction studies. My journey began as a school-level research project and gradually evolved into field-focused technology development. Through Navmarg, we are now working to take this research forward commercially and build scalable, affordable solutions for safe drinking water.

A major part of my work has focused on the development of magnetic arsenic removal systems based on physical separation principles. This work has supported arsenic-safe water access for 10,000+ children and treatment of over 7 lakh litres of water. I work across experimental characterization, computational modelling, and applied R&D, with a simple belief that science becomes meaningful when it moves beyond papers and prototypes to solve real problems for people
