I have worn many hats in my life including being a 2008 Beijing Paralympian, harpist who performed at Carnegie Hall, Penn State graduate, and Ms. Wheelchair New Jersey 2013. None of that would have been possible had it not been for a stroke of luck. I was adopted from India at age two, after having contracted Polio as an infant. After spending 2012 abroad, living and working at a home for orphan girls (some with severe disabilities) in Kolkata, India, I decided to change the direction of my career and pursue a Masters of Public Administration degree. I saw firsthand what life could have been like for me and I wanted to do something about it and make a change.
I currently work as a Transition Coordinator at a Center for Independent Living to help high school students and adults with disabilities to become self-sufficient and independent. I'm driven by a desire to pay it forward so others can live their lives to the fullest. I have never let my disability define me and owe a lot of my uniqueness to it. I have been asked that if I could change things, would I? Absolutely not! |
