I co-founded Saathi, a social enterprise dedicated to providing a sustainable solution for feminine hygiene to women in India. I am passionate about sustainable manufacturing and women’s issues. I worked on multiple projects with the MIT Design Lab (D-Lab) in Brazil, Nicaragua, and India. I worked on my first sustainable product in Uttarakhand. I also volunteered with the Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE), to structure and expand the national collegiate team to better support over 60 collegiate chapters, as well as to develop SASE leadership in the Northeast. Since its founding, Saathi has been recognized globally by Time Magazine, Fast Company, UN Environment Program, UNIDO, Allure, Vogue and others, for its social impact, innovation and sustainability. MIT DLab ScaleUps Fellow, Asia Society Young Leader, TEDx speaker, Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia Fellow, Cartier Women’s Initiative Finalist, and recognized by the Department of MSME. Interests: speaking about sustainability/circular design
