About

As a Heritage Knowledge Catalyst,I have been playing an active role in fostering preservation of Indian cultural heritage ecosystem. I consider myself a Thought Leader who combines creativity, management, advocacy and planning to shape, sustain and promote arts, culture and heritage enthusiasts. I aim to cultivate innovative ideas and values that make a positive impact on building a sustainable and growth oriented society.

My training and experiences in museums and archives, learnings at the international organisations led to engage deeply with heritage preservations, knowledge management and repository developments. Additionally, my Visual & Social Anthropological understandings and involvement in cultural heritage projects, helped promoting and showcasing the skills and legacies of artisan communities of India in a sustainable growing pattern through research and training, workshops, exhibitions, symposiums, and publications at both national and international levels. I have been a Rutherford funded Research Fellow at the British Library, London as part of an international research collaboration.

I enjoy being a Heritage Educator and have been delivering talks at various prestigious institutions/universities of India. I find Mentoring private museums and personal collections to develop their Knowledge Repositories and Resource Centers, a beautiful journey of sharing knowledge.

I strongly believe the path of modern Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga guided by Grandmaster Choa Kok Sui and creating a Heaven on Earth.
