  • Description

    * Booked Mar 1-April 30, May 25-July 31*

    I have worked in human rights and environmental NGOs for the past decade. Prior to this I taught English for 4 years, to students as young as 3. I speak fluent English, Kannada (India), Spanish and a little French.

    I had a rescue cat for his entire life until he passed away, have fostered cats three times, cat and dog sit many times and a longtime volunteer with an animal rescue. For the past 5 months, I have volunteered in a cat cafe, with many responsibilities.

    In addition to my NGO skills of analysis and social work, I’m also a skilled in animal rescue and working with people as a receptionist or even a barista or bartender. I have been on the Board of Directors for Amnesty International, an interim Executive Director for a small NGO, and have skills in running the behind the scenes of a nonprofit. I am skilled in tech and communications like graphic design, social media management, website design.

    I love to travel and have traveled to dozens of countries and almost all of the continents. My main goal is not only to travel but to learn skills, I would love language and cultural exchange and to learn about sustainability and the earth.

    I was born and raised in the US but my family is from India and I was raised deeply in the culture. my parents are both Hindu pastors (acharyas) and I am happy to share about the culture and faith as well as learn yours. I can read astrology and teach you about Ayurveda, yoga, and holistic healing and spirituality if these are things that interest you.
