## About

```text
At Vardhman Fabrics (Vardhman Textiles LTD), I led cotton and cotton/polyester spinning operations in the Production Department. I improved sliver evenness from CV% 2.07 to CV% 1.45 by reducing drawframe doubling from 8 to 7.

I also led a one-week comber efficiency improvement study, collaborating with cross-functional teams to address production losses and improve machine efficiency by 10%.

For my IIT Delhi thesis, I developed biodegradable active food packaging using PLA spunbond nonwoven, Moringa oleifera extract, and ε-polylysine. The material achieved approximately 98% antimicrobial activity against foodborne microorganisms and extended fruit freshness by around two days compared with untreated packaging.

My projects have also included comparing yarn properties in ring and compact spinning, evaluating materials for extreme cold weather garments, and designing customized weight-lifting gloves. I have completed data science training in Python, statistics, and machine learning.
