COMMUNITY

My mother has always been my inspiration…guiding newcomers and their families as they settled into a new country. As a South Asian woman raised by an amazing role model, my life is wholeheartedly dedicated to serving individuals within the diverse and mainstream communities – (it has been) my life’s passion.
