About Me

I'm so glad you found this space. I'd like to tell you about me, and how I can help you.

I was raised between cultures— Indian and American, modern and traditional. I learned early how to hold two truths at once, and how to move gently inside a family's unspoken rules, because I grew up inside them.

​This isn't just where I come from, it's over 15 years of my actual work, spent alongside communities with the least access and the most at stake. I have sat next to those who could not advocate for themselves, and listened to how to make their lives better. In 2021, I built a mentorship program that gave over 20 South Asian teen girls direct guidance from someone who understood their world. I've facilitated workshops, listening circles, and family conversations for years. I know how families carry grief differently, depending on who's watching, what's allowed to be said, and what generations of silence have taught them to hold back.

I am attentive and unhurried, and I am not afraid of what's actually happening in front of me. I bring real curiosity, not a script. I don't flinch from hard questions, and I don't rush anyone past what they're feeling to get to a tidier place.

When someone shares their stories with me, I see it as the highest honor — that they're willing to let their guard down and bring me into their world. It ties directly into my own values of collective liberation, trust, personal growth, and connection.

If you're choosing who sits beside you as you die, or beside your family as they lose you — you deserve someone who can hold a specific complexity and not just generic comfort. I bring cultural fluency, family systems experience, and the steadiness to stay present in the room when other people leave.
