Freshwater Ecologist | Conservation Scientist
Welcome to my website!
If you are here, we likely share a common goal to conserve our planet for posterity. Coming from India, a land where nature is revered as equal to humans, my scientific lens views wildlife not just as data points but as beings we ought to celebrate together.
I take a biological approach to understand the species responses to climate and land-use stressors, through field experiments, life history investigations, and long-term ecological monitoring. Besides my zeal for fieldwork to address immediate conservation issues (which remains my greatest source of energy), I seek broad scale answers through ecological niche models, big data synthesis, automation, and exploration of the potential of artificial intelligence in applied ecology.
