Chemistry got my attention during my high school when I came across the topic of Surface Chemistry and I decided to pursue my higher studies in the field of chemistry. Having decided that , I joined a three year course of B.Sc. (H) Chemistry at University of Delhi. I attended different National level conferences and seminars regarding the topics of my interest to create a strong foundation of the subject. I firmly believed that I would be able to achieve my objectives with a doctoral degree, so I joined the Graduate School at University of Oklahoma. During my PhD research I am working on synthesis and characterization of novel materials that can efficiently serve as proficient energy materials. I strongly believe that my prior research knowledge is helping me a lot during my current research work. All my educational achievements will ultimately help me to achieve my goal and become a great researcher as well as a proficient academic educator.

After graduation, I would like to work as an Academic Professor at some renowned University.
