Social Impact at LinkedIn, Mother, Homemaker

Bangalore, India

I studied economics, and at one point I had two paths in front of me: I could crunch numbers to make the already rich richer, or I could use my skills to do something that truly mattered. I chose the latter. Over time, I’ve realized it’s not just about the skills I bring but the power of my empathy, my stubborn hope for a better future, and my desperation to create a world where every child, like my Kiara, has access to opportunity.

My work in social impact is inseparable from my role as a mother. At LinkedIn, every ounce of effort I put in is also a lesson I’m quietly teaching Kiara: the value of kindness, the importance of having a large heart, the responsibility to look out for those less fortunate, and the meaning of hard work that she sees me living every single day.
