Join me on my Personal Growth Journey, where each challenge has been a thread in the tapestry of my life, crafting not just a professional but a storyteller and advocate for mental health and resilience.
A Story of Transformation and Triumph
Born in a community teetering on the brink of poverty, my life’s journey is a mosaic of profound experiences. From navigating the narrow alleys that skirted the label of a slum, to enduring weeks surviving on mere rice starch, each step has been a testament to resilience. My path has been marked by overcoming adversities such as domestic violence, bullying, and the deep wounds of abandonment, along with the harrowing realities of ongoing emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.
Crossing Continents, Embracing Change
The journey took a pivotal turn with my move to the United States – a leap into a new world filled with its own challenges and opportunities. This transition was more than geographical; it was a passage to recovery, professional development, and personal reinvention.
Today’s Reality: Triumphs and Ongoing Recovery
Now, standing as a proud homeowner, a seasoned professional, Founder/CEO of Sahana Inc., and an individual in continuous recovery from PTSD, my life reflects a spectrum of triumphs and ongoing battles. Each phase of my life contributes to the person I am today: resilient, compassionate, and driven.
A Voice for Mental Health and Resilience
As a storyteller and advocate, I aim to use my voice to raise awareness about mental health, resilience, and the strength it takes to transform pain into purpose. By hinting at my story, I hope to inspire others to find strength in their own stories and to realize the potential that lies within the struggles.
From Personal Lessons to Professional Excellence
My journey through my personal challenges has been instrumental in shaping my professional identity. Each hurdle I’ve overcome has honed skills invaluable in leadership: resilience in the face of shifting dynamics, empathy towards team members, and a deep understanding of the human element in technology.
These experiences have taught me the importance of emotional intelligence, adaptability, and visionary leadership. They’ve allowed me to approach professional challenges with a unique perspective, valuing not just the technical aspects but also the human factors that drive success in the tech industry.
