About

I am an Assistant Professor of Communication in the Department of Business Management at Integral University. I have submitted my Ph.D. in Linguistics at IIT Indore, where my research focused on language attitudes, language hegemony, language shift, multilingualism, and the dynamics of the medium of instruction in multilingual contexts.

My research has been published in internationally reputed journals, including the Journal of Language, Identity & Education and Humanities & Social Sciences Communications. My work has also been recognized with the Best Paper Presentation Award in the Research Scholars Category at the 17th International & 53rd Annual Conference of ELTAI.

Previously, I worked as a Sociolinguistics Research Intern at IIT Madras and spent two years as an English instructor at a language academy in India. I hold a Master's degree in Linguistics from the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU), where I also received the departmental Gold Medal for academic excellence during my bachelor's program.

My academic interests include sociolinguistics, multilingualism, language policy and planning, language attitudes, communication, and education.
