Where I am now:
Growing up, I was captivated by the inner workings of technology and the potential to optimize production systems in my hometown of Vadodara, Gujarat. This curiosity and enthusiasm have naturally led me to pursue a major in Industrial Technology, where I can transform my passion into a fulfilling career. I would like to explore the intersection of industrial technology and agricultural sciences, which will allow me to apply these systems in the continental US and back home. As a new entrant to the field, I’m keen to absorb as much knowledge as possible from my mentors and peers. I am particularly interested in learning about the latest advancements in climate change and sustainable manufacturing practices. I am eager to understand how these technologies can revolutionize traditional industrial processes and contribute to a more efficient and sustainable future. My commitment to learning is evident in my active involvement in campus activities and their proactive approach to education. I am also exploring opportunities for internships and research projects to gain hands-on experience and deepen my understanding of industrial technology applications.
