What Shapes Me

🧠

Strategic Curiosity

From assessing AI model transparency to evaluating risk across 40+ jurisdictions, I lead with curiosity. I don't just ask "what"—I dig into the "why" and "what if," helping teams think two steps ahead.

🌉

Bridge Between Product & Privacy

I connect the dots between regulatory nuance, user needs, and product design. My sweet spot? Translating legal and ethical principles into intuitive, human-centered experiences.

🗃️

Systems Thinker

I see patterns—across audits, frameworks, data maps, or workflows. Whether building a global DPIA process or redesigning internal tools, I optimize for both scale and empathy.

🎭

Creative Discipline

17 years of Bharatanatyam taught me precision, storytelling, and presence. That discipline now shows up in stakeholder decks, product evaluations, and even how I write governance frameworks.

🤝

Community Builder

At NYU, I grew a 500+ member consulting club from scratch. Offline and online, I bring people together around ideas, initiatives, and shared momentum.

🎨

Multipotentialite

Engineer. Privacy Specialist. Writer. Designer. I've never fit in a single box—and I use that to my advantage. Each interest fuels the next, enriching how I approach people, problems, and possibilities.
