I am an emerging artist that is from Boston, New York and Los Angeles.
All but two of my family are artists for four generations on both sides. I was formally a professional dancer (Classical Indian). I have been passionate about photography since a young girl but the abstract art only came last year.
Most of my life has been primarily about spiritual practice and meditation thru art as I have a deep interest in sacred arts that have the ability to transform consciousness.
I went to UCLA World Arts & Culture, a unique degree that allowed me to pursue my passion in dance and integrate multi-media and sacred arts.
I lived a hermit's life in India for many years and since 2007 have been integrating back into the world. Disabling chronic
pain for 13 years has had a profound impact on my life and art.

Awarded Fine Art Internship at Boston University
Honorable Mention, Boston Globe Scholastic Art Contest
Chosen as emerging artist to represent US in all arts tour of Russia (International Arts for Peace)
