I have been fascinated by physics (and cricket) since my school days. I enjoyed conducting experiments, from electroplating kitchen utensils to building electronic circuits like radios and amplifiers. This curiosity led me to pursue a bachelor's and master's degree in physics, specializing in quantum mechanics and nonlinear dynamics. My interest in nonlinear dynamics deepened as a research assistant, where I applied bifurcation theory to study the behavior of various quantum systems. I later pursued a PhD focused on non-smooth dynamical systems in engineering, particularly vibro-impacts and friction. I developed analytical and numerical methods to study these systems and conducted experiments for validation using electronics.

Now, as a postdoctoral researcher at University College Dublin, I continue to explore complex nonlinear dynamical systems with applications in science and engineering, including power electronics, mechanical systems, vortex-induced vibrations, and energy harvesting.
