Grew up in Florida, of Indian/Zoroastrian Parsi origin.
Worked in finance (NYC), legal consulting (Rome, Italy & Brussels, Belgium), cross-cultural consulting (Bombay, India), recruiting and learning (San Francisco and London)
Most happy while traveling to explore new cultures, places and people
Friends tease me that my mantra should be "results not typical"...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Countless dear friends made along the way
