MY APPROACH
Combining geotechnical engineering knowledge, research, and field exposure to better understand ground behaviour and support thoughtful engineering decisions.
01 — ABOUT
Engineering the ground.
Understanding the detail.
I am a Geotechnical Engineer with postgraduate training and research experience in soil behaviour and foundation-related topics.
I completed my M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Hamirpur in 2025. My academic work and internships have given me exposure to geotechnical analysis, construction sites, and engineering project environments. I am interested in opportunities that connect research and industry.
