Biography
I completed my undergraduate degree in India and worked as a rotational physiotherapist in a hospital and a research centre there. I moved over to England in 2022 to pursue masters in Neuromusculoskeletal practice at the University of Nottingham. Alongside my masters degree, I worked as an MSK physiotherapist in a clinic and a teaching assistant on the physio course at Nottingham. My research interests focus on global health inequalities, mental health, education, and neurocognition. My teaching philosophy is grounded in reflective practice, empowering students to become leaders of change and fostering critical thinking. I am guided by the quote: “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
