About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much as I can, to love life, to not take myself too seriously

ABOUT ME

I am a life-long learner and teacher. I love spending time in nature, and I lead backpacking and mountaineering courses for young adults. For my research in school, I am interested in the relationships between people and places, specifically with respect to water management and policies. I love people -- have lived in various communities for over ten years -- and I love to travel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A traditional Hindi wedding in the Garhwal Himalayas

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmmm...one of the biggest lessons I continue to learn and relearn is about impermanence. We always lose everything eventually, which makes living in the moment the most beautiful and precious thing we have.
