As a politician, his social circle consisted of political leaders: members of the Youth Congress, MPs, MLAs and ministers. Hence, from a young age, she had the opportunity to study Indian politics. Her childhood interests soon turned into a passion as she pursued a degree in political science and economics from Wake Forest University. Eventually she completed a master's degree in Public Policy from Harvard and worked at the World Bank. But her passion for politics pulled her back in and she started a social enterprise, Swaniti Initiative, that supports elected officials (MPs and MLAs) on development issues. Now her work focuses on working with MPs on constituency-level matters. In 2014, she featured in the Forbes India's 30 under 30 list, she has been recognized by the White House as an Emerging Entrepreneur, by the British High Commission as a Young Leader, by the Australian Government as a Young Leader and by the World Economic Forum as a Young Global Leader, amongst other accolades. Politics continues to be her soft spot.ver menos
