About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spread Love. Compassion. Peace. One Friend at a Time.

ABOUT ME

Hi there - I am an American of Indian origins, but I like identify more with my global citizenship and humanity. I enjoy company of idealistic and progressive people who like to think we can make the world a better place! I enjoy going to new places for the adventure and to learn about their cultures, languages, food (!!), music, history and evolution. But more importanly, I mostly love to travel to meet new people! I enjoy meeting people where they are at -- their perspectives, experiences, views, opinions -- because it gives me an opportunity to appreciate them for who they are and to learn more about myself. A lawyer by training, but a yogi by demeanor, I love the experience of sharing all that I have, and listening and receiving all that the world has to give me. I tend to look at the bright side of things and have a LOVE for three things: food. music. hookah.

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
