Those close to me would tell you that I am kind, passionate, smart, and caring. I believe in making a difference in this world and am an idealist at heart. I am drawn to folks who are non-conventional and challenge the staus quo. I have been a vegetarian since birth and became vegan over twenty years ago because of moral and ethical reasons. I am very lucky to be in a career that lets me tackle issues I am passionate about. Injustice of any kind bothers me - and drives me to work to make a positive difference. I am originally from California and that is where my parents and siblings currently live.

I love to hang out and chat with friends at cafes/restaurants/home, watch movies, go hiking or just stay at home and read a good book. Travel is something I cannot live without! I have been lucky enough to travel to many different countries and plan to continue doing so the rest of my life!

I have never been married and don’t have kids. I am proud of my Indian heritage and would want a partner who also respects India, its culture, etc.
