Third-year at TISS Mumbai (BS Analytics & Sustainability Studies), Freshman at IIT Madras (BS Data Science). Pursuing both simultaneously, which says enough about how I operate.
I work at the intersection of data science, spatial analysis, climate risk, ESG, and sustainability strategy. Not because it's a trend, but because the problems at that intersection are the ones actually worth solving — e-waste piling up in cities, flood risk that local governments can't quantify, policy indicators that don't reflect ground reality.
My approach is simple: if there's a complex problem, there's probably a dataset that can make it less complex.
Energy Security · Economic Opportunity · Formalisation · Sustainability Strategy · ESG · SDG Alignment
Proposed a credit-based incentive mechanism for high-value material recovery from e-waste in Mumbai. Integrated economic, social, and sustainability dimensions. Presented in a sustainability conference at IIT Bombay.

Python · QGIS · Excel · IDW · Kriging · Thin Plate Spline · NOAA-GSOD data
Conducted multi-method spatial interpolation of rainfall data for France (NOAA GSOD). Evaluated IDW, Ordinary Kriging, and TPS methods using RMSE and R² metrics. Extracted station-wise time-series data and generated interpolated raster maps for climate risk communication.

Python · NetCDF · IMD Data 1974–2023 · Numpy · Pandas · Matplotlib
Analyzed 50 years of IMD gridded rainfall data for Ernakulam district to identify historical flood and drought patterns, seasonal anomalies, and risk zones. Produced time-series trend analysis and spatial risk maps.
