What brought me here.
I grew up in a small town in India. My parents were highly educated, but the world around us wasn't always as open-minded.
I learned early what it meant to prove yourself — through grades, through exams, through constant competition.
So I studied hard. It got me into IIT.
IIT changed things. It gave me room to think for myself, in a way nothing before had.
But I was also surrounded by some of the most driven, competitive people in the country. I became part of that race.
For years, I ran a marathon I never signed up for.
I built a career in product. I loved the problem-solving, the ownership, the impact. I loved building things and seeing them make a difference.
But somewhere along the way, I noticed what actually lit me up wasn't the roadmap.
It was the people.
Helping someone on my team find their footing. Watching a colleague trust themselves a little more. Having a conversation that helped someone see a problem differently.
That part never felt like work.
Eventually, I couldn't unsee it.
So I left the career I'd built to do this instead.
Coaching — helping people become more of who they already are. Helping them sit with their fears instead of running from them. Notice their own thinking instead of being run by it. And, perhaps most importantly, learn to trust themselves.
I've done this work on myself too. I don't coach from theory. I coach from having lived it.
Today, I'm a single mother to a seven-year-old girl and a very energetic three-year-old dog, and I've built the life we have on my own terms.
I've lived in India, New York, Singapore, and now Bangkok. I know what global corporate life looks like from the inside — and I know its very human, unglamorous parts too.
I lift weights. I eat well. I try to leave things a little better than I found them.
Coaching, for me, is that same instinct — helping people trust themselves enough to lead their own life.
