About

I am a second year Master's student in the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Cornell Univeristy. I am working at the Thermal Sciences Laboratory headed by Prof. Thomas Avedisian where I am currently studying ignition of fuel droplets at elevated pressure. The second part of the study includes investigating different methods of fuel ignition- Spark based and Hot wires. I graduated from K.J. Somaiya Collge of Engineering with my B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering in the Spring of 2021. During the last semester of my senior year, I interned at the Department of Aerospace Engineering, IIT Bombay, under the supervision of Prof. Rajkumar Pant where I worked on the Conceptual Design of a HALE UAV for Coastal Surveying.
