I have completed my PhD in Education at CHRIST University in Bangalore, I am deeply committed to promoting student-centred, experiential, inquiry-oriented, and competency-based education to foster an individual's holistic development and promote social transformation.

Throughout my career, I have worked as a teacher educator and facilitator for the professional development of teachers, helping them to grow and thrive in their roles as educators and leaders.
