Short Bio
I earned my B.E. (ECE) in 2007, and after that, I worked as an Embedded Programmer for approximately 1.5 years at IWIZ Hitech Solution in Chennai, where I also practiced Microcontroller Programming using Embedded C and LabVIEW design on my own. I have 10 years of teaching experience in various of institutions. I finished my Masters (Embedded System Technologies) in Anna University, Regional Center- Coimbatore. I completed Full TIme Ph.D in 2024 at SRM Institute of Science and Technology(Deemed to be University), kattankulathur.
