DPS introduced me to Psychology which became my area of interest and this marked a beginning of a journey. I pursued BA (Hons) in Psychology from Kamala Nehru College, Delhi University; as part of my graduation I also undertook volunteer work in the field of Mental Health in various NGO's and medical settings.
After completion of my graduation I got the opportunity to pursue Master's in Social Sciences, Social Work from Tata Institute of Social Sciences. The knowledge and experience I gained provided me with a strong base to develop perspective and sensitivity towards social issues. I completed a Research study as part of master's degree - 'Understanding Perspective on Treatment, Care and Rehabilitation in Mental Health Institutions.'
In 2010, I completed my master's and got selected by Ealing Council, to work in the department of Children Services in the UK. This was my first work experience and I practiced as a frontline Social Worker for several years following which I moved into management roles and at present I work as Strategic Manager for Children's Centres.
I live on my own in London and carry a busy work life. In my free time I like to watch movies, listening to music. I am very fond of travelling and I play badminton.
