Her body of work and accomplishments have received recognition in India and other countries for their deep influence on enhancing people's identities, perceptions, and life skills.
This impact strategist made it her personal goal to help individuals, especially young people and women, comprehend the science of PRIM so they may dramatically alter their entire persona and image and significantly improve their life skills over the long term. She lives by the tenet of "selfless contribution," and she is motivated by a desire to change the world for the better.
