About
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at M. S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, with a Ph.D. in Materials Chemistry from Visvesvaraya Technological University (2016). My research focuses on the design and development of advanced functional materials, with particular interests in energy storage materials, solid polymer electrolytes, electrochemical systems, nanomaterials, and sustainable materials technologies. I have successfully led and contributed to externally funded research projects supported by DST-SERB, SPARC-MHRD, VGST-K-FIST, and the Government of Karnataka, with cumulative funding of approximately ₹1.58 crore. I have published 137 peer-reviewed research articles and 13 book chapters, and my work has received more than 4,600+ citations with an H-index of 39. My research integrates materials synthesis, advanced characterization, electrochemistry, and structure–property relationships to develop materials for emerging energy and environmental technologies.
