Education

NEOTECH INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Bachelor's of Engineering, Mechanical, 7.44 2013 – 2017 Activities and Societies: Industrial Trainee at DCW Limited, Dhrangadhra (In-plant training focusing on industrial operations). Technical Apprentice at Jyoti CNC Automation Ltd., Rajkot (Completed comprehensive departmental rotation and hands-on training in CNC/VMC automation systems). Engineering Project Team Leader, spearheading innovative mechanical design and mechanism optimization workflows. During my Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering program at Gujarat Technological University, I combined rigorous academic coursework with intensive practical training to build a strong foundation in design, manufacturing, and process optimization. Key highlights of my academic career include:
Core Academic Focus: Developed deep technical alignment with advanced 3D modeling, Design for Manufacturing/Assembly (DFMA), manufacturing process planning, and lean methodologies.
Capstone Engineering Project: Research and development of an "Advanced Ship Turning Mechanism". This project engineered a novel front-end mechanism to turn marine vessels efficiently in challenging conditions where standard rudder operations are restricted, successfully eliminating pilot dependency while saving operational time and costs.
Practical Industrial Training: Gained vital early exposure to senior-level engineering environments through practical stints at Jyoti CNC Automation Ltd. and DCW Limited, observing shop floor practices, technical inspection standards, and multi-departmental workflows
