I completed my Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) from Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT), Odisha, in 2005, and subsequently earned my Master of Technology (M.Tech.) from West Bengal University of Technology (WBUT) in 2016. Between these academic milestones, I gained eight years of valuable industrial experience by working in various textile industries, which provided me with strong practical knowledge and professional expertise.

Since 2015, I have been serving as a Contractual Assistant Professor in the Department of Textile Engineering at Odisha University of Technology and Research (OUTR), Bhubaneswar. In this role, I have been actively involved in teaching undergraduate students, guiding laboratory and project work, curriculum development, and conducting research in the field of technical textiles and functional textile materials. My academic and industrial experience enables me to effectively bridge theoretical concepts with practical applications, fostering industry-oriented learning and research.
