About

I’m a Manufacturing Engineering postgraduate with hands-on experience in data analysis, AI-driven process optimization, and engineering research. I specialize in turning complex technical problems into structured, data-backed solutions.

I have worked on industrial projects involving process optimization (curcumin extraction analytics platform – ExtractIQ), statistical modeling (DoE, multivariate analysis), Excel/VBA automation, and full-stack web development using React and Python. I also have experience with engineering simulation tools like SolidWorks and Abaqus.

What sets me apart is my ability to bridge engineering, analytics, and software development - allowing me to not just analyze problems, but build practical tools and systems around them. I focus on clarity, measurable results, and professional communication in every project I take on.
