BIO
I am passionate about solving problems and converting ideas into real products. With 4.5+ years of experience in product design, including concept development, designing, and robotics.
I have always been a creative person, and I am fascinated by many opportunities for designing products that can improve people’s lives
I have 4.5+ years of experience at futuristic labs where I worked on the “Automatic cocktail maker”, and “Automatic rice and curry maker (Riku)”. Developed the product from concept to production-ready stage. I have worked on the Designing, concept generation, electronics, and programming parts as well.
I have worked at the Centre for product design and manufacturing (CPDM), Indian Institute of Science (IISC) Bangalore(It is ranked #1 among the most prestigious academic institutions in India) as a part of a 6-month internship under Prof.Gurumoorthy. Where I have been given NDIN -MHRD funded project on designing and prototyping experimental kits in Physics for classes 11 & 12. We have worked on topics Ray optics and total internal reflection as a team of two members. We have developed two products from Idea to Launch. Our products are in the process to file for a patent.
I have done my Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical design and manufacturing (MDM) in IIITDM Kancheepuram. As a student, I received a broad education in Mechanical, Product Design, and Manufacturing, and I found myself especially interested in courses concerning design thinking, and manufacturing methods. Through the courses I took, I learned to observe problems and analyze them carefully and come up with creative ideas, and implemented them in real life.
As a Grad project, I have done a project on “Automatic sandwich maker / Vending machine”. Developed the project from idea to working prototype in a span of 6 months. I worked alone on all aspects of the product(Designing, Electronics, Programming).
I was the organizer for the Robotics club in our college. Where I have conducted Sessions, Events, and Competitions. Where I worked to improve my leadership abilities and other skills.
Using my knowledge of the above,
· National Recognition for My Bracelet design in 3dDesign Monthly Challenge Conducted By Autodesk Company in January 2017. (selected among top 30 designs).
· Won 1st prize in Swachh Bharat related 3D Design Challenge.-NOVEMBER 2016.
· Won2nd Prize in college mechanical event in which we have created a syringe hydraulic movable mechanism that can cover maximum distance in minimum time
· Won 1st prize in a team of 4 Robotics competition on the chamber of secrets (IIITDM college Fest)-MARCH 2017.
