I specialize in cultural ecosystem services and ecosystem health in the Himalayan region. I have a foundation in Forestry from Garhwal University (where I was awarded a gold medal for my Masters).
I’m pursuing a PhD at CSIR-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, with the support from the INSPIRE Fellowship. As part of my research, I focus on understanding the intricate relationship between ecosystems, community-based conservation and restoration, and sustainable practices within the Himalayan context.
