The only way to do great work is to love what you do\"- Steve JobsI am a self-motivated engineer with a keen interest and passion to advance my career and whet my skills in the areas of Power System Modelling and Control. I love to develop solutions to power system problems. This interest made me to pursue my career as Power System Studies Engineer after completion of my Bachelors degree. My stint as a Power Systems Studies Engineer has provided me with good amount of exposure in power systems. I completed my masters in Electric Power Engineering at much coveted KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. I worked with Dr. Luigi Vanfretti in SmarTS Lab and was involved in the development of Static and Dynamic Indexes for the EU project iTesla I was also involved in validating and calibrating the Nordic 44 model along with the iTesla offline workflow. As part of my master thesis, I developed a method that performs voltage stability assessment and suggests remedial actions against voltage instability using Machine Learning.I worked as a Power System Engineer in GE from 2017 to 2021. This role involved contribution to research and design within the core WAMS & Wide Area Protection and Control products and its interaction with related grid stability tools. It also involved analysis and studies as consultancy and services, involving model-based static and dynamic analysis, and measurement-based studies.I worked as a Senior Power System Engineer in NationalGrid ESO from 2021 to 2023. This role involved contribution to GB master network model. It also involved leading innovation projects addressing the problems faced by the ESO.I have excellent communication skills and I am a good team player. I aspire to constantly be involved in solving power system problems. I\'m currently working as a Principal Power System Consultant in Siemens.
