My path
I came to management from engineering. After a B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering at Karunya University, I worked as a studio technical coordinator at Kalai Kaviri College of Fine Arts, then took an M.B.A. in Human Resource Management and Marketing at M.A.M. College of Engineering and Technology. I qualified the Tamil Nadu State Eligibility Test in 2017 and the UGC National Eligibility Test in 2019, both in Management.
I have taught in higher education since 2016: first at MASTeR Group of Institutions, where I was also a human resource executive, then at Sri Meenakshi Vidiyal Arts and Science College, and since 2020 at St. Joseph's. My research looks at occupational stress and quality of work life in knowledge-intensive sectors, green human resource management in higher education, and what non-governmental organisations contribute to community literacy.
Alongside teaching, I have spent seventeen years with TOSS Charitable Trust, the youth-led organisation I founded in 2009. Its work with differently-abled children, readers and the environment is where much of my research begins.

How I teach
-
Learning by doing
Management is a practice. My students plant trees with NGOs in government parks, volunteer at district sports meets for differently-abled children, and do their projects and internships with real organisations.
-
Digital-first classrooms
As departmental in-charge for JosTEL, the college's learning management system, I designed the programme's first fully digital component test and build e-content for self-paced courses.
-
AI, used well
I hold NPTEL certification in Artificial Intelligence in Human Resource Management and teach students to use AI tools and prompt engineering critically, as aids to thinking rather than replacements for it.
-
Tools I build
I wrote the Network Diagram Simulator, a free web app my Operations Research students use to draw project networks, find the critical path and test crashing.

Heart Apps
Free apps, made with heart
Outside the classroom I make free apps for Android and Windows under the name Heart Apps. No ads, nothing to buy, and your data stays on your own device. I build the apps I want on my own phone and computer.

Beyond the classroom
At St. Joseph's College I have brought the Department of Business Administration together with NGOs for tree-planting drives in government parks and for student volunteering at district sports and cultural meets for differently-abled children. These initiatives earned the Department a special appreciation from the Tiruchirappalli District Collectorate.
