On completion of my undergraduate studies, I was felicitated for securing the highest marks in all subjects throughout four years and also awarded as the Best Outgoing Student from my batch.I am eager to secure challenging roles concerned with neuro-rehabilitation. I also have a keen interest for research in the neuro rehabilitation sector.My studies along with my internship have provided me with broad proficiency in clinical physiotherapy assessment and conventional treatment techniques.
