Many quantum leaps in science and engineering have stemmed from the passion and dreams of visionaries working across multiple research fields like Prof. Subra Suresh. Inspired by them I have shaped my own career philosophy:

1. Before I decide picking a problem I always ask myself the question *who cares?* I believe that research is all about tackling important problems and setting extremely ambitious goals.
2. Any serious effort to make the world better would require organised effort. Collaborations and friendships are key elements of my research.
3. My multidisciplinary research approach and training in mechanics, optics, and material science will be my vehicle for solving grand challenges.

Currently, I am looking into building a powerful research team of engineers, chemists, and computer scientists who will work together to study manufacturing and mechanics aspects of green composites. Should you be interested in joining the team, please reach out!
