About Me
Final Year Electronics and Communication Engineering student at NSS College of Engineering, Palakkad — specializing in hardware design, embedded systems, VLSI, and research-driven innovation.
I am proud to be the first engineering student from my family, carrying forward a dream that began long before me and turning it into a reality through hard work, dedication, and faith.
I specialize in bridging hardware and software, with research internships at IIT Palakkad, IIITDM Kancheepuram, and IISER Bhopal , and Intern at Asnaviram Networks(HYBRID) Contributed to PCB design, circuit optimization, and embedded solutions.. My projects span CubeSat power systems, autonomous rovers, biomedical signal acquisition, FPGA design, and electrochemical sensing — each driven by a desire to solve real-world problems through engineering.
As Chair of IEEE ComSoc NSSCE, I lead technical workshops, mentor peers, and foster innovation. I have presented research at IEEE NexoTech 2026 (ICATI), won the REGEN Hackathon (₹60,000 prize), and received the IEEE ICEdge Student Travel Grant to present at IISc Bangalore.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
