About Me[edit | edit source]

I'm an academician, budding researcher and clinician specializing in cardiorespiratory based in India. My entry-level physiotherapy graduation was completed in 2011 and Post-Graduation in Cardiovascular & Respiratory Physiotherapy in 2015. I worked as a clinical therapist and later headed the PT department in a corporate setting, for 5 years. My experience and special interests are in intensive care and pulmonary rehabilitation.

Since 2020 I have transitioned to academics as an assistant professor/ lecturer in Maharashtra, India. Area of research which interests me includes normative pulmonary values in children, pulmonary function testing & training. Academic experience has given me a newfound inclination to learn more on digital education and rehabilitation in long COVID.

I recently had the amazing opportunity of presenting my scientific paper titled, ‘Regression Equations for Peak Expiratory Flow Rate in children aged 5-10 years of Pune, India – A Cross Sectional Study’ at the World Physiotherapy Congress 2021. It was exciting to get selected as a bursary for the congress & being featured in their Opening Session video among other videos. It has motivated me to participate, learn & try to contribute to the International Physiotherapy community.
