For A Positive Change
My commitment as a socialpreneur extends to coaching design thinking and UX course for rural kids and students to empowering them to identify and address the right problems, instigating positive change in their lives and communities.
Tribal Children Design Thinking
Living with Nilgiri & Wayanad tribes transformed me. Immersed in culture, I learned, cooked, danced, and built bonds. But it went deeper - I wanted to empower their future.
​
Witnessing their daily ingenuity sparked a duty to equip their children. Coaching 60 students in essential skills solidified my belief in education's power to transform lives. Let's harness the lessons of this journey - foster innovation, empathy, and knowledge sharing. Together, we can unlock potential, regardless of background.
UX Training & Mentorship
8 months, as part of my non-profit socialpreneur activities, I've been providing UX coaching to 10 rural graduates working as goat herders, masons, and electricians. Additionally, I've been mentoring those from prestigious design colleges like IIT and NID in urban areas.
