What defines you as a person?

A hardworking dreamer is what I would say, I dream and I work towards achieving those dreams. A person glued to culture and set to achieve the best of the world.

What keeps you going?

What keeps me going in life are the goals I set up for myself. While starting my career, I had a bucket list for things to achieve, and luckily I was able to complete them all in the initial three years. Maybe they were set at a very low level but it gave me such great satisfaction to be able to make my dreams come true.

I still make some goals for myself: practical goals. And whenever I feel down I start creating new goals so that I have them in my mind whenever I start my day at the office. This is my current way to cope up and be energized to start my day every day.

What’s your long-term vision?

My long-term vision in life is to be a successful and inspiring women leader. The path through which I have achieved my dreams in my life was never easy and they took time and I know things might not be that easy-going forward too, my vision is not to give up and achieve the best of the world.

Why Talerang?

Talerang because it works as a mirror that has the miraculous ability to showcase your inner strength. The world we live in has so many options available and these options are something that would trap you in them forever and most individuals are not able to solve this puzzle and it takes years for you to realize what actually they would need and here comes Talerang: not saying they would solve this puzzle on behalf of you but they would at leas t help you realize the parts of this puzzle. And that’s where you would start 🙂

Any advice for someone just starting out in their careers?

Professional life is not easy at the start, please never ever let your guards down in the initial phase.
Things are not always straight and everything takes time: be patient and learn from every little thing happening across. Things you desire would definitely come to you at the right time.
