What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in sustainable chemistry, with opportunities for growth and collaboration.

I am a dedicated research chemist with a Master's degree in Applied Chemistry from The Maharaja Sayajirao University, India. My professional journey has been marked by a strong focus on hydrometallurgy and sustainable practices, particularly in reclaiming valuable resources from industrial waste. At Rubamin Pvt. Ltd., I successfully developed multiple products that not only attracted new customers but also significantly increased the company's profitability.

My expertise extends to troubleshooting and enhancing plant operations, where I have implemented innovative solutions that resulted in cost savings and improved profit margins. As a committee member of the DuPont Sustainable Solutions taskforce, I have played a crucial role in improving safety standards within the organization. My academic background, combined with hands-on experience in research and development, equips me with a unique perspective on the intersection of chemistry and sustainability.
