Hi!

I obtained my bachelors degree in science from Osmania University, Hyderabad (2007) and masters from National Institute of Technology (NIT) Warangal in Industrial Chemistry specializing Dyes, Drugs, Pharmaceuticals and Pesticides (2009).

In 2009 August I joined the PhD program here in IISER TVM with Dr. KMS. I started my research in carbohydrate chemistry working in both Supramolecular gels and natural product synthesis as well as synthetic methodologies.

My current area of research is synthesis of cyclitol based natural products using carbohydrates as starting chiral precursors.

 

I am a big fan of cricket. I love to play and watch cricket.
