Research Focus: My research interests centre on the philosophical analysis of loneliness as an ethical and existential condition, grounded primarily in Western philosophy. I examine loneliness through questions of self-hood, moral responsibility, recognition, rationality, and ethical presence, drawing on ethical theory and phenomenological approaches. My earlier academic work includes engagement with Indian philosophy, particularly themes of self-knowledge, duty, non-attachment, and moral agency, which informs a comparative perspective within my broader philosophical inquiry.
