I am dedicated to supporting individuals in achieving their goals through personalized, strength-based pathways. My passion lies in creating safe, proactive environments that empower individuals to grow personally and professionally at their own pace. I take a trauma-informed approach to my work, ensuring that each person’s unique history, experiences, and learning styles are central to the support I provide.
Throughout my academic and professional career, I have worked extensively with children, families, and adults across therapeutic and educational settings, fostering their growth and witnessing their success. My years of experience have been grounded in a commitment to equity, compassion, and individualized care.
Currently, my doctoral research is rooted in philosophy and ethics, exploring the intersections of difficulty, trauma, and selfhood within educational settings. This work informs my practice, allowing me to tailor approaches that respect and honor the complexity of each person’s journey.
My ultimate goal is to guide individuals in exceeding their ambitions while fostering resilience, growth, and a sense of agency.
She/Her
Career Coach specializing in ADHD and AuDHD

Although I am a third-generation teacher on my maternal side of the family, I am also a first-generation master's degree holder in education. Being a first-generation South Asian Canadian cis-gendered woman, I know what it feels like to feel confused about my place and role in certain social settings just by navigating my own intersectionality in various ways. I resonate with not being seen or heard and what it feels like to be brushed aside because in certain places my personal, professional, and academic identity was misunderstood and/or misrepresented. That is why I believe that building relationships is vital in order for me to truly help anyone with their goals.
I invite consultations of neurodivergent individuals in the BIPOC community, and I also serve as an ally for neurodivergent queer individuals. I truly value the process of learning and unlearning, as it can keep us thinking critically and foster better relationships, but also assist in avoiding stagnancy. Whether you are a student, switching careers, struggling to organize and keep up with life, I have experience in working with and supporting neurodivergent students, neurodivergent individuals undergoing career changes and who need support with AuDHD/ ADHD coaching in executive functioning.
My goal as an educator and coach is to ensure I foster culturally responsive and reflective relationships with BIPOC individuals (as I am a member in this community) and as an ally for queer individuals. My hope is to always create a safe space to allow individuals to advocate for themselves and take control of their personal, professional, and academic lives.
Some fun facts about me, I was once an athlete myself (specifically I played Rugby and Basketball). I am also an extreme foodie, I love cooking new recipes and trying out new restaurants- wherever there is food, I am there!
I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you reach your goals.
