Summary
Having lived in four different countries has given me the unique ability to transition into new environments seamlessly as well as brought me up as bilingual - speaking both Hindi and English. Eager to learn, I've cultivated a broad set of skills and knowledge during my Bachelor's degree journey, a dynamic exploration encompassing diverse fields from engineering to molecular science, with a dedicated focus on my passion - infectious diseases. Finally, I strive to educate and inspire other women like me in STEM to know more about this field and its possibilities. Thus far, I have pursued this by joining the core teams of WiSA and girlSTEMpowered.
