Curious about my journey?
Where It Began
I began my career in mental health, founding a community-based venture in India. Working directly with individuals and families, I saw how stigma, fragmented systems, and limited access often stood between people and the support they needed. The work was never just about services or tools, it was about building trust, honoring dignity, and creating environments where people felt safe enough to engage.
That experience fundamentally shaped how I understand problems. I learned early on that meaningful change rarely comes from a single solution. It comes from understanding human behavior, lived context, and the systems people move through every day, many of which were not designed with real people in mind.
How I Learned to Think
Wanting to better understand how access, scale, and impact are actually created, I returned to school to study at the intersection of human behavior, technology, and design. I wasn’t searching for more tools, I was searching for a different way of thinking.
Design became a language for making complexity navigable and systems more humane.
During this time, my work expanded across healthcare, research, education, clean energy, and social impact. Across these contexts, one question remained constant: Why do people behave the way they do and how do we design systems that work for people as they actually are?
How I Work
I center my work around the relationships I build. I care deeply about:
Creating access across health, education, and community systems
Designing for real human needs, not just elegant solutions
Respecting complexity, without letting it paralyze action
Bridging gaps, between people, systems, data, and strategy
These principles guide how I collaborate, how I lead, and how I make decisions.
Find the problem. Understand the system. Collaborate deliberately. Design with intent.
What I Do Today
Today, I work at the intersection of behavior, systems, and collaboration, helping teams move from ambiguity to clarity in high-impact environments.
My background spans psychology, design science, research, and entrepreneurship, allowing me to work fluidly across disciplines and stakeholder groups. I often partner with clinicians, researchers, educators, and institutional teams to uncover structural barriers, facilitate alignment, and translate complex challenges into outcomes that can function in real practice.
Beyond Work
Outside of work, I recharge through movement, creativity, and reflection. I love dancing, long conversations over coffee, and spaces that invite curiosity and expression. These moments ground me and often influence how I show up in my work: with presence, empathy, and care.
At the heart of everything I do is a simple goal: to design systems that help people feel supported, capable, and understood, especially when navigating complexity.
