My inquisite journey started with the project in High school. Trying to find an eco-friendly method for grey water purification, we stumbled upon Colocasia and a few other plants- unsung heroes in water cleansing. It left an indelible fire in me that led me to the research on x-ray shielding materials, for replacing toxic Pb - my MPhil thesis.This emboldened my faith that material science is my passion. PhD at Loughborough University on “Green Filter” provided the opportunity to develop state-of-the-art sustainable ceramic filters- using novel materials and manufacturing technologies (3D printing) to help humanity progress in an eco-friendly manner.
