about.
I aspire to work towards the inclusion of historically marginalized communities in our global drive to sustainable development. I recently graduated with a Master of Global Affairs from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, focusing on international development and environmental policy. I have cross-registered for technology and development classes at the Harvard Kennedy School as well.
At Fletcher, I am a communications assistant for Fletcher Russia & Eurasia Program. During the Summer of 2023, I interned in Ethiopia with an early-stage energy start-up to strategize global partnerships. At the same time, I compiled a report on the institutional improvement of conservation in East Ethiopia as a recipient of the Tufts Elephant Conservation Alliance (TECA) Grant.
Before Fletcher, I worked as a development practitioner on issues related to public health, development, and energy across India. My on-ground experiences with diverse communities have made her more empathetic and inclusive in her projects. I am fluent in English, Marathi, and Hindi.
