Welcome to my website! I recently completed my doctoral studies at the University of New Mexico, where I focused on identifying and addressing the barriers that hinder ridership on Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems. My research is part of a larger mission to make transportation systems more inclusive, equitable, and accessible for all. This passion is rooted in my own experiences growing up in India, where I relied heavily on public transportation to access education, work, and community life. I believe transportation is more than just infrastructure—it’s a foundation for opportunity and inclusive development.

Beyond my academic pursuits, I find solace in the great outdoors through activities such as hiking and camping. I also cherish the timeless beauty of Indian classical music and am an ardent practitioner of Yoga. Thank you for exploring my journey and interests with me!
