As someone who grew up in India and later called Australia home, I’ve lived the experience of navigating new cultures and searching for a sense of belonging. The lessons I learned throughout my journey from Trivandrum and Hyderabad to Bangalore and ultimately to Melbourne have shaped my purpose: helping others feel truly seen and safe to be themselves, wherever they work or live.

My own migration journey, and the challenges I faced along the way, inspired me to retrain as a counsellor and dedicate my career to fostering wellbeing in culturally diverse communities. Since 2008, I’ve worked as an educator, support worker, and facilitator, empowering thousands of individuals and teams to reflect, learn, and grow.
