I have blend of industry & academic experience. My twenty-three years of experience comprises of roles in reputed organizations like HMT (MTB), AUMA INDIA Ltd and PES University. I have presented papers in several national and international conferences.

Furthermore, I have published research papers in various peer reviewed journals. I Worked as a resource person to the Business Analytics MDPs at PES University and actively attended several faculty developments programs (FDP).

My administrative skills (as Chairperson-MBA, PES University), has proven to be a critical asset in driving the department in the areas like collaboration, Introducing Residential Programmes etc.

I possess teaching experience in the Analytics domain for a number of years now. At my previous role, I set up and executed exclusive academic streams focusing on Analytics. I am now pursuing the Business Analytics Long term program from the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. Learning and experiences from this program would help me in imparting quality analytics content and case studies through industry-relevant course material to students.

I am an environmental social scientist interested in the multidimensional issues at the convergence of environmental change and rural societal dynamics. My research interests lie at the interface of forest, agriculture, and livelihood changes with an effort to inform conservation and development ‘problems’.

I am interested in the political ecology of land use change in the swidden/shifting cultivation/jhum landscapes of Garo Hills in Meghalaya, Northeast India. This subsumes a range of themes including the dynamics of land use mapping, agricultural change within swidden, plantations and forests, and the character of land tenurial changes. I had earlier studied the nature of socio-economic differentiation, food security, well-being, and livelihood sustainability. I am increasingly interested in the complex historical continuities of intercontinental trade, the wider dynamics of market linkages, and configurations of the political economy of the region that have contributed to land use change to engage with conservation and development issues. The consequences of it for agroecology, nutrition, and intra-community dynamics are themes I am currently exploring.

My research and teaching aim to provide a better understanding of the conundrums of environmental and related social issues with a keen interest in informing theory, policy, and action. I espouse interdisciplinary research framings and methodological pluralism to approach such complex human-environment ‘problems’. I use remote sensing and GIS, qual-quant social science methods, and archival data in my work, and I am a conservation biologist by early training.

I teach undergraduate courses with disciplinary and interdisciplinary focus including Biodiversity and Conservation, Environmental Social Science, and Earth Science in the Environmental Science Bachelor’s programme. I have prior undergraduate and post-graduate teaching experience at science and social science institutes in India.
