About me

Richi is a second-year PhD student in the Cook Lab at University at Buffalo. She is from Odisha, India and received her Integrated Masters in chemistry from National Institute of Technology Rourkela (NITR). Her research primarily focuses on the synthesis of metal-ligand coordination driven self-assemblies of porphyrin moieties and Platinum based metal nodes and studying their electrocatalytic activities for ORR. She is one of the board of directors for Graduate Chemistry Club, UB. When not in the lab, Richi likes spending her time watching TV series, playing ukulele, and painting badly.
