Bio
Hello everyone!
I am a second year undergraduate student passionate about building spaces where meaningful conversations can happen. Across student communities and social impact work, I have contributed to planning and executing large scale events, leading outreach efforts, and supporting awareness initiatives focused on mental health and menstrual health. I am currently working with teams that bring ideas to life through clear communication, thoughtful structure, and collaborative execution. Driven by the belief that when people feel informed and included, they participate more openly and create stronger outcomes together.
I'm passionate about
Building bridges between data and dignity, where awareness isn’t just a poster or a hashtag, but something people can understand, talk about, and act on. I care about making social impact work both human and high-functioning: empathetic in intention, disciplined in execution.
An idea worth spreading
“Systems create safety.”
Big change doesn’t only come from big speeches, it comes from small, repeatable systems that make difficult conversations easier. A well-designed space (in a classroom, a committee room, or a community drive) can reduce stigma, invite honesty, and make people feel safe enough to participate.
The TED story
I’ve worked across student communities - MUNs, TEDx, mental health initiatives, and on-ground drives where I keep noticing the same pattern: people often want to help, but they don’t know how to begin. My story is about learning that impact isn’t only about intention; it’s about creating the right structure - clear communication, thoughtful design, and safe spaces, so that people can show up fully. Whether it’s a committee discussing human rights or a room of young girls learning about menstruation without shame, I’m drawn to building spaces where difficult conversations become possible and meaningful.
Things you might not know
Creating calm in chaos. When things are moving fast- tight timelines, high expectations, many stakeholders, I’m good at stepping back, spotting what’s actually breaking the flow, and quietly fixing it. I’m also good at making people feel comfortable enough to speak, especially when the topic is uncomfortable.
