After taking masters in mariculture (1985), joined Prawn Farm Project complex under MPEDA, Kochi in 1987. In 1993 joined ARS and CMFRI; Served in Veraval RC (1995-2001) and in Mangalore RC ; served as Scientist –in-charges in both centres for three and six years respectively. Demonstrated the utilities of application of GIS in Indian marine fisheries and presently focusing on spatial planning in marine fisheries management and sustainable mariculture development. Worked and have expertise in crustacean fisheries/ biology and trends in Indian trawl fishery . Developed and popularized CBA and small scale cages suited for finfish culture in coastal waters.
