I am a PhD student in Physics in the Astronomy and Astrophysics group at University of Warwick. My supervisor is Dr. Matteo Brogi (currently at University of Turin). My research involves working with high-resolution (R>25,000) spectroscopic transmission and emission observations of exoplanet atmospheres. I also work on simulation of transmission and emission observations of exoplanet atmospheres at high spectral resolution using current and next generation ground-based spectrographs, in order to quantify the observability of specific molecular signatures.

I have a Master of Science in Astronomy (Research) degree from Leiden University, The Netherlands. I completed my 4 year Bachelor of Science in Physics from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in Karnataka, India. I completed my Senior Secondary (High) schooling from DAV Public School, Chandrasekharpur, Bhubaneswar, India and my Secondary Schooling (Matriculation) from Modern Public School, Meghadambaru, Kuruda, Balasore.

My hobbies include reading books, watching science fiction movies, anime and TV series. I’m also a comics and manga enthusiast and love depictions of kaiju and giant robots in media.

Eventually, I’d like to do independent research in Astrobiology, an area I’ve had an interest for since a long time. I also plan to work on science popularization and outreach and aim to help a generation of new astronomers, astrobiologists and planetary scientists come up in my country.
