Born in India and raised in New Zealand, she is interested in unpacking the impacts of Westernisation on people of colour, and in youth and adolescent mental health issues. She aspires to continue writing and crafting her thoughts through words. She’s usually either studying, exercising or meditating (I know what?!)
