Featured Opportunities
As a strong believer in the power of serendipity and increasing the surface area of luck through proof of work, meritocracy, ability, and potential — I am fortunate to have been invited and made a mark on prominent national and international platforms over the past 6 years.
Some of these include TEDxILSLaw, at Leiden University, FICCI flo, MCCIA, American Centre Library in New Delhi, Books on Toast, and Airplane Poetry Movement among others. With every opportunity I get, I have sensed a renewed feeling of empowerment and gratitude for myself and the community around me that I am building. By virtue of having been at the right place at the right time, I also consider it my responsibility to increase the pie of opportunities that the common man gets access to!
So, if you think you’d like an opportunity to share an idea or a thought process or just need a space to speak publicly about a cause that you feel deeply about, feel free to reach out to me via LinkedIn or Instagram — happy to build synergies to amplify voices and stories of the common man! 🙂

Civil20 Official Working Group on Disability Equity Justice – International Conference @ Delhi [May 2023]
I had the chance to address a gathering of thousands of activists working in the space of disability rights on my lived experiences navigating through law school as a person with chronic illness while also being a caretaker to my mother who is 80% disabled. I truly believe that there is meaning in every adversity that any individual experiences, and that it is only a matter of time before we recognize it. I also shared my findings from the survey I conducted across law schools in India to understand the challenges faced by law students with disabilities while seeking reasonable accommodations. My inputs were appreciated by the panellist speakers and the audience at large.
FICCI Flo session on Decoding the Rape Culture Pyramid and how to stop the underlying toxicity [December 2020]
Close on the heels of the Bois Locker room incident that occured in May 2020, I was invited by the Committee heads of the Church youth group to conduct a session addressing the youth. I utilized this opportunity to sensitize the audience on the rape culture pyramid and blended learnings from the scripture with the law. The session left the attendees comprising the age groups of 16 to 40 years feeling empowered with the legal nuances of dealing with instances of sexual harassment. The commendation I received for the session emboldened me to address a wider audience on a bigger platform. The invite from FICCI forum for women leaders was the apt platform to make this happen.
