About

A master's student in Chemical Biotechnology at the Technical University of Munich, I specialise in electrobiotechnology, sustainable energy technologies, process engineering, and enzymatic research. I possess hands-on experience in the mathematical modelling and simulation of biological electrochemical systems through my research internships and student job. I graduated in Chemical Engineering from TKM College of Engineering in 2023. My interest in energy development also led me to minor in Electrical Engineering. During my undergraduate studies, I was not only academically driven, which helped me secure the fifth highest GPA in chemical engineering across the State of Kerala, but also made sure to make myself an all-rounded student. Thus, I was active in many technical student chapters, college clubs and events, and took up leadership, mentorship, documentation, and graphic design responsibilities. I am keenly interested in programming, creative writing, debating and Model UN. I speak five languages and firmly believe that celebrating and accepting diversity is crucial for scientific advancement. After all, to understand the world and to make it better, one must understand and bring out the best in the people around them.
