What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an entry-level role in microbiology, biotechnology, or the pharmaceutical industry, where I can apply my knowledge in microbial analysis, quality control, and research techniques while maintaining rigorous biosafety and lab standards.

I’m an MSc Microbiology graduate (CGPA: 8.66) focused on turning lab work into reliable results. My dissertation explored “Development of a Self-Healing Bio-Paint Using Alginate-Gelatin Encapsulated Linseed Oil and Microbial Pigments,” where I designed and executed experiments, analyzed data, and followed biosafety and lab protocols.

Through my internship at Dr Gaikwad Pathology Laboratory, I performed microbiological testing and sample analysis, maintained sterile environments, and supported documentation and laboratory procedures. I bring hands-on strengths in microbial culturing, Gram staining, sterilization, PCR, gel electrophoresis, and contamination analysis—paired with attention to detail, analytical thinking, and teamwork—so I can contribute confidently in microbiology, biotechnology, or the pharmaceutical industry.
