A seasoned professional with a passion for learning and a commitment, fostering excellence in the field of Coke making. With a robust background in Metallurgical Coke Making technology with over 40+ years of experience, presently working as Senior Vice President at JSW Vijayanagar, I bring a wealth of knowledge and leadership skills to this esteemed position.

One of the aspects I find most intriguing about steelmaking is its intricate blend of science, technology, and craftsmanship. The ability to transform raw materials into a material as versatile and essential as steel is both an art and a science. I appreciate the precision, innovation, and collaborative efforts that go into every step of the steel production process.

The dynamic nature of the steel industry also appeals to me. It brings more and more challenges every day, as It constantly evolves with advancements in technology, sustainability practices, and global market demands. Being part of this industry that plays a pivotal role in numerous sectors, from construction to transportation, is both fulfilling and inspiring.

Serving as the Dean for JSW Technical Academy is a thrilling opportunity to contribute to the future of the steel industry. I am particularly excited about the potential collaborations with industry experts, researchers, and professionals to ensure our curriculum remains cutting-edge and aligned with the latest advancements in Coke Making & Steel technologies.
Leading this platform as the dean for Coke Making technologies, a process with a significant impact in steel making, contributing approximately 50% to the cost of hot metal and about 40% to the cost associated with cast steel, is a source of great excitement. This platform will play a crucial role in optimizing costs associated with Coke making, offering innovative solutions to address these cost impacts.

I am also thrilled, as this platform can be used a tool to guide aspiring professionals, nurturing their skills, and preparing them for successful careers in this dynamic field is both a responsibility and a privilege that I eagerly embrace.
