Biography: I was born and raised in Punjab, India. After completing my B.Sc. from A.S. College in 2016, I pursued my M.Sc. at MCM DAV College. In 2018, I joined the research group of Prof. Prabal Banerjee to pursue my doctoral studies, focusing on exploring the chemistry of quinones for the synthesis of oxygen and nitrogen heterocyclic scaffolds. I completed my Ph.D. in July 2023. In October 2023, I joined Prof. Benjamin List's group as a postdoctoral researcher, where I focused on asymmetric catalysis using IDPi catalysts. In parallel, I was awarded the prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship and, in January 2025, joined Prof. David Procter’s group. My current research involves investigating sulfonium salt photochemistry. In my spare time, I enjoy playing badminton and cooking.
