I am a Process Safety Consultant working for Lloyd’s Register Energy Americas. Moreover, am a licensed Professional Engineer from the Texas board. It’s been a decade, I came from India to pursue my masters degree in Chemical Engineering at IIT (Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago). I moved to Houston in 2007 and the city was warm enough to accomodate me with overwhelming opportunities in Oil & gas sector and which, I now call my home town i.e H’town. Over the years, I worked for various oil & gas , chemical clients performing process engineering and process safety work. My expertise working on various PSM elements, drove me towards PSM direction and I also presented papers on PSM program, simplified PSM guidance for smaller facilities using a Risk Based Approach etc at conferences. Personally, I am huge outdoor fan and have been a regular participant of the MS-150 & the Chevron marathon. A huge sportsfan and an obvious Texans fan with a soft corner towards the Bears (being my first town).
