About Me
I am a recent graduate with a solid foundation in chemistry, honed through rigorous academic training and valuable hands-on experience. My passion for scientific exploration has been reinforced through internships and projects, including a notable research internship at the Central University of Punjab, Bhatinda. There, I had the opportunity to work on the synthesis of discrete copper hydride nanoclusters using dithiocarbamates via wet chemical reduction. This experience allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding of advanced laboratory techniques, including Schlenk line operations, inert-atmosphere reactions, and solvent extraction methods, while also familiarizing myself with analytical tools like NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy.
My academic and research pursuits have instilled in me a keen interest in solving complex problems and exploring innovative solutions. I am particularly drawn to the intersection of experimental chemistry and its real-world applications. Beyond technical skills, my ability to conduct thorough literature reviews and maintain meticulous records of experimental procedures has enhanced my proficiency in data-driven decision-making, ensuring transparency and reproducibility in research outcomes. I take pride in my analytical mindset and my ability to adapt quickly to challenges in dynamic environments.
In addition to my academic and research endeavors, I have diversified my skill set through an internship in social media marketing with Game of Life Sports & Dipsites Golfing Fraternity. This role allowed me to develop creative marketing strategies, enhance audience engagement, and contribute to the organization’s online presence. The experience cultivated my ability to think strategically, communicate effectively, and manage multiple responsibilities simultaneously—skills that are as essential in research settings as they are in the corporate world.
As I move forward in my journey, I am eager to deepen my expertise through postgraduate studies in chemistry. My long-term goal is to contribute to impactful scientific research and innovation, addressing real-world challenges through collaborative efforts. I am driven by a relentless curiosity and a commitment to continuous learning, which I believe will enable me to make meaningful contributions to the scientific community and society at large.
