Worked on mechanism design for automotive components where smooth and reliable movement was critical. Handled complete mechanism ownership from concept stage to design freeze. Spent a lot of time on clearances, tolerances, and motion checks to avoid issues during validation Supported DFMEA and design reviews and closed design issues with CAE and manufacturing teams

Created 3D CAD models and assemblies in CATIA and updated designs based on packaging and functional requirements. Did motion checks and basic kinematic analysis to make sure mechanisms worked as intended. Worked closely with seniors, suppliers, and manufacturing teams to resolve design and feasibility issues. Supported prototype builds and helped in resolving issues during testing and validation stages.

Mentored students on basics of vehicle dynamics and mechanical system behaviour. Supported problem-solving during testing and competition phases

Research on Multiphase in a vertical pipe with determining proper analytical solutions. Worked on designing a conceptual model related to multiphase flow in a vertical pipe Contributed to research, analysis, and documentation as part of the project Co-authored a research paper based on the study and project findings

Managed social media content and basic documentation for the student association Coordinated with team members for posts, updates, and event-related content Helped improve engagement and consistency across platforms

Worked on design and development of steering system components. Assisted in CAD modeling and design iterations based on vehicle dynamics requirements.

Majors in Vehicle Technology and Robotics & AI.

My undergraduate journey blended technical learning with leadership. As a Vehicle Dynamics Associate Leader in the Formula Student team, I gained hands-on experience in vehicle dynamics and steering design, while also serving as Head of Social Media & Content Writing of Mechanical Engineering Stude
