India, South Asia
My research examines how science, technology and policy intersect in the context of urban planning, energy transitions and environmental conservation. In my writing, I engage with the tensions between innovation, regulation, and public participation, especially in the introduction of new technologies, across these contexts. I am also involved in civic initiatives in science communication, contributing to projects that bridge research and community engagement.
I have experience in policy, nonprofit fundraising and university administration. Before coming to York, I completed a Masters in Literature and Modernity from the University of Edinburgh, and a Bachelors from Lady Shri Ram College at the University of Delhi. I am a former Young India Fellow.
