A bit about me…

Hello! I’m a non-binary Indian immigrant and my practice focuses on working with queer PoC youths. I’m interested in supporting issues related to navigating identitie(s), systemic barriers and intergenerational traumas.

As a person on the autism spectrum, I also have lived experiences and specialized interests in helping other neurodivergent (ie. ASD, ADHD) people moving through the mental health system, whilst also living authentically.

Art making is a big part of my life. I like to think I’m a jack of all trades. From digital art, cartooning and painting and sewing, knitting and pottery. also enjoy playing instruments, video games and TTRPG’s (table top role-playing-games).

I also love learning about mythologies, languages and history of different parts of the world. I am constantly occupied with all my hobbies with nature walk breaks, as I’m not fond of staying idle.
