I was awarded the prestigious <strong>Build India Scholarship by L&amp;T Construction</strong>, secured <strong>1st rank in the Civil Engineering Department at SRM University</strong>, and earned early recognition through a <strong>1st position in a state‑level essay competition</strong> and jury appreciation in the <strong>Master Builders Bridge Design competition at IIT Madras</strong>. My research accomplishments include an extensive portfolio of <strong>SCI and Q1 publications</strong> in leading journals such as the <em>Journal of Cleaner Production</em>, <em>Construction and Building Materials</em>, <em>Journal of Building Engineering</em>, and <em>Materials &amp; Structures (RILEM)</em>, along with multiple conference presentations at national and international platforms including ASCE, IIT Bombay, NIT Calicut, and Manipal University. I have contributed as a <strong>peer reviewer</strong> for reputed journals like <em>Materials Today</em> (Elsevier), <em>Innovative Infrastructure Solutions</em> (Springer), and <em>IOP</em>, reflecting my standing in the research community. Demonstrating an innovation‑driven mindset, I hold a <strong>patent for interlocking hollow building blocks</strong> and two <strong>copyrighted sustainability assessment frameworks</strong>. I further strengthened my professional credentials by becoming a <strong>Construction LCA Specialist (One Click LCA)</strong> and a <strong>GEM Certified Professional</strong> authorized to execute sustainability certification projects. My academic contributions extend to organizing <strong>five Faculty Development Programs</strong>, <strong>four international workshops</strong>, national seminars, survey camps, and field visits, showcasing strong leadership in academic event management. Additionally, my competitive exam achievements include qualifying <strong>GATE 2015 and GATE 2023</strong> with high percentiles, further underlining my technical proficiency and commitment to continuous professional growth.</div>
