Before I could read, I had my first introduction to the field of health care. My mother was a pharmacist who was constantly counseling patients about medicine.

After 10th grade I excelled in biology, physics and chemistry. Soon, I began my Bachelor in Pharamacy Program at Nitte Gulabi Shetty Memorial Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences and devoured the comprehensive scientific curriculum. Later on, I attended T.
