About Me
I am currently working as a Faculty of Physics at St. Joseph's University (SJU). I am passionate about teaching and materials science research.
My research focuses on advanced nanomaterials, particularly two-dimensional (2D) layered nanostructures and their composites for applications in gas sensors, humidity sensors, and nonlinear optics. I have also worked on polymer nanocomposites, mono- and bimetallic nanostructures, and optically active neuromorphic devices.
With over two years of teaching experience, I teach a wide range of physics courses, including Experimental Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Materials Science, and Molecular Spectroscopy. I have also mentored M.Sc. students in their research projects with successful publication outcomes.
