She is a philanthropist who likes to give back to the society. This particular nature of hers has helped her to gain interest in the field of biotechnology as this field can, not only help humans, but also help flora and fauna along with taking care of mother nature. Subsequently, her engrossment in this field increased. She did her B.Tech in Biotechnology with Amity University Mumbai and passed with an overall C.G.P.A of 9.05. She understands that practical knowledge is equally important and hence did 3 internships alongside her education. She did her very first internship within her own university wherein she along with her 3 classmates prepared whey protein powder from cow’s milk at 40% reduced industrial cost.
The second internship was with a start up called Azeedo which was incubated by IIT Mandi catalyst. She extracted photochemicals from plants and used these photochemicals to produce a new kind of biopesticide which worked against a plant pest called Ralstonia, solanacearum F1C1. She also produced a fly insect repellent which killed ants, Ades mosquito, paper wasps, flying termites and spiders. For her third internship, she worked in a government organization called CSIR- NCL where she focused on using RNA gene silencing method as a potential weapon against a polyphagous insect Helicoverpa armigera, which is known to feed on more than 200 plant species. She also has a knack for technical writing. This can be seen through her publication. She has written a book chapter “Microbial Electrochemical Dye Degradation: Present State of Art” along with two other classmates of hers which has been published by Springer Nature Singapore Pvt Ltd. Her love for biotechnology made her to purse her dream of doing Master’s degree. She is now a M.Sc. graduate from University of Leeds, United Kingdom with distinction in Plant Science and Biotechnology. She also knows to present her work very well, be it in the form of research papers, reports, presentations or posters. She has been awarded with the Bioscience Prize for Best Poster from University of Leeds. Currently, she is looking for an opportunity to work with an organization that offers challenges, responsibilities and decision-making opportunities to gain experience and grow as an individual.
