I am a PhD (Philosophy) scholar at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK) in Kanpur, India. I did my M.A. (Philosophy) and M.Phil (Philosophy) from the Central University of Hyderabad, India. My areas of interest are Philosophy of Action, Ethics, Metaphysics, Existentialism, Buddhism, and Contemporary Indian and Western Thinkers. I have actively participated in and presented papers at several national and international conferences, seminars, workshops, and summer schools. I have been awarded overseas travel grants for participation in academic events at the University of Padua, Italy; National Taiwan University, Taiwan; Van Leer Jerusalem Institute, Israel; Peking University, China; International Academy of Philosophy, Liechtenstein; University of Düsseldorf, Germany; Nicolaus Copernicus University, Poland; and many more places. I was awarded the Swami Pranavananda Philosophy Essay Award from the Indian Philosophical Congress. I received the Achiever Award from the Central University of Hyderabad, India, and was named College Topper in the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) program. My works have been published in the Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research (JICPR), Springer, India. I love to write poems too.

I hope my information helps you feel encouraged, inspired, and motivated to explore and enhance your academic background. I believe in a reciprocal approach to interacting with students, learning from them and sharing my ideas.
