As a National Program Leader, I implement NIFA’s strategic plan to support societies that depend on the U.S. agriculture and forestry. I do this by advancing agricultural research, education, and Extension. Previously, I managed scientific programs at USEPA, USDA-FAS, and at a multinational food ingredient technology company. I also served as a faculty at a US Land Grant university. I hold a Ph.D. from the University of Georgia, an M.S. from the Indian Institute of Technology− Kharagpur, India and a B.S. from G. B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, India.
