What I'm looking for

I'm seeking R&D roles where I can contribute to eco-friendly technology development and implementation.

At University of Lucknow, I'm pursuing a PhD in Physics specializing in Materials Science, with a focus on hydrogen storage. I developed DFT models using Quantum ESPRESSO to study hydrogen adsorption in perovskites.

My research also includes the design and performance analysis of environment-friendly perovskite solar cells.

In 2025, I worked as a Subject matter specialist in Physics/Renewable Energy at VSGOI (Dr. Virendra Swarup Memorial Trust Group of Institutions).

I hold a master's degree in Renewable Energy from University of Lucknow and qualified UGC-NET in Environmental Science in December 2025. My project work includes material recovery from waste solar panels and a working model of a bomb calorimeter.
