I am a distinguished materials scientist with over eight years of experience at various universities andinstitutes. For the past three years, I have been working as a postdoctoral research fellow at North Carolina State University, USA, focusing on developing multi-functional superomniphobic surfaces. Before this, I worked for 1.5 years as a postdoctoral research fellow at The Ohio State University, USA, focusing on developing stimuli-responsive liquid crystal surfaces for liquid droplet manipulations. I have authored over 25 research publications and hold five patents that demonstrate my innovative contributions to the field. My expertise encompasses a first hand experience on wide range of analytical techniques SEM, FTIR, UV/Visible, Mechanical Testing, Microscopy, DSC, TGA, Thin film formation/deposition, spray coating, etc. I have a strong background in developing water repellent coatings, and in mentoring students. My research excellence has been recognized with numerous national and international awards. With a robust portfolio of pioneering research and a proven ability to translate scientific advancements into practical applications, I am well-equipped to drive forward the field of materials science in an academic/industrial environment. I am eager to bring my expertise, innovation, and dedication to the university/industry and contribute to creative research and innovations in materials engineering.
