I completed my B.Sc. degree with distinction in 2013, securing the fourth rank at Rani Channamma University, Belagavi. Subsequently, completed my M.Sc. degree in Mathematics with distinction in 2015, securing the first rank (Gold Medal) at Rani Channamma University, Belagavi. Also, successfully qualified in several competitive examinations, such as KSET in 2016, GATE in 2019, and CSIR-UGC-NET with JRF in 2019. In terms of computational proficiency, I am well-versed in foundational computer skills and have experience with software such as Sci-Lab, MATLAB, and LaTeX. I completed my Ph.D. under the guidance of Prof. Vishwanath B. Awati, Department of Mathematics, Rani Channamma University, Belagavi, on the topic entitled “Analysis of spectral methods for the solution of heat and mass transfer problems” in March 2025, and published several research articles in reputed International journals. Our research has made significant contributions to various fields, especially in the development of spectral methods and the study of heat and mass transfer problems. I have nearly three years of teaching experience at the postgraduate level, during which I taught subjects such as Ordinary Differential Equations, Partial Differential Equations, Numerical Analysis, Mathematical Methods, Real Analysis, Complex Analysis, Functional Analysis, Differential Geometry, Topology, and Graph Theory. I have demonstrated strong analytical and problem-solving skills and have been actively engaged in advanced research methodologies.
