Where did you grow up and why aren’t you there now?

I was born and raised in Mumbai, India. While Mumbai’s fast paced and busy life will always hold a special place in my heart, I am currently in British Columbia because I made a decision to explore new opportunities and pursue personal and professional growth. Also, it is BC! The awe-inspiring sea and the view of the Rockies from almost every part of the province is beautiful indeed.

Any volunteer activities and/or non-profits you love, & why?

Volunteering in fostering dogs is an activity I truly love and am passionate about. The opportunity to make a difference in the lives of these wonderful animals, and support their journey to finding forever homes, brings me a deep sense of purpose and happiness.

What would be impossible for you to give up?

It would be impossible for me to give up soccer. The beautiful game has been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember. From the first time since I kicked the ball on the grassy field as a child, I fell in love with the sport’s excitement, camaraderie, and sheer joy of playing.
