Someone wise once said that it's a beautiful thing when a career and a passion come together.

Over the last few years we've all seen how the way of living and working has changed remarkably in India and the world over. Suddenly, money is not the only motivating factor, it is the balance one attempts to strike between work and happiness, and the value of job satisfaction that helps us rise and shine to look forward to our work every day.

Ever since I was a little girl, I always wanted to make my work life a place where I could feel happy every day. With the loving support of my parents and some inspiring teachers and my innate passion, I can gladly say that I love what I do….!

With the same passion in my heart and the spirit to spread the happiness that comes with lifting other women up with my artistry and talent, I extend an opportunity to you all to give back what I got from so many inspiring people.
