Hi, I'm Vidhi👋
I'm a detail‑oriented R&D engineer working on intravascular catheters and biocompatible materials. I sit at the intersection of mechanical precision and human biology, designing and 3D‑printing prototypes that are meant to survive both verification testing and real procedures. When I'm not debugging test data, I'm usually in a K‑drama rabbit hole, deep into a Harry Potter re‑read (Ravenclaw, obviously), or walking through a new city just for the architecture and vibes.
My operating system
- •Question everything. If we're doing it the old way, there's probably a better way.
- •Research first. I don't take "impossible" for an answer until I've investigated it myself.
- •Connect the dots. Engineering, business, clinical, and regulatory are all part of the same system.
Currently building
- •Next‑gen intravascular access tools for safer, more predictable procedures.
- •My R&D skill stack — design controls, V&V, and regulatory / quality thinking.
- •Designs and 3D‑printed prototypes that actually survive real testing.
K‑dramas I recommend
Stories that quietly rewired how I think about work, loyalty, and people:
Antihero, law, chaos
Vincenzo
Rom‑com, law, comfort
Suspicious Partner
First love, Jeju, slow life
When Life Gives You Tangerines
Engineering appreciation
The Airbus A380 — the king of the skies is my favorite piece of engineering: a 560‑ton double‑deck aircraft that somehow moves with ridiculous grace. Quad‑engine, over‑engineered in the best way, and a reminder of what aligned teams can build.
Same energy I bring to catheter design, just smaller scale (and fewer jet engines).
Roots
I grew up in Mumbai — where jugaad, chai, and problem‑solving are a way of life. The Marwari mindset stuck with me: small, consistent actions, long‑term thinking, and taking pride in building things that last. Now in California, I'm engineering FDA‑bound devices with the same resourceful energy, just with more documentation.
Outside the CAD screen
- →K‑drama marathons — occasionally over‑analyzing character arcs like design reviews.
- →Walking through new cities just to stare at architecture, transit systems, and how people actually use space.
- →Nerding out over the Airbus A380, air‑traffic maps, and why good engineering feels like magic.
- →Harry Potter debates (Ravenclaw with strong opinions) and quietly building my own playbook for work, money, and decisions.
