I center anti-racism,
anti-capitalism,
anti-imperialism, and intersectionality in my efforts to redistribute resources, strengthen
people-powered movements, and inspire youth.
I advocate for radical change and
liberation in community with other South Asians, class-privileged young people, abolitionists, and California residents.
In 2020, I created a mutual aid network that connected over 1000 people in LA
County and was replicated in three other cities.
At Politics Rewired, I helped equip Leftist candidates
and unions with effective organizing tools. I also volunteer for
grassroots political campaigns and support voting rights groups with the Voter Empowerment
Project.
As a public middle school teacher in East Oakland, I learn from students every day, and
I strive to integrate art, social justice, and restorative practices into my computer science classroom.
I use she and they pronouns and grew up in Southern California on Tongva land. Catch me practicing yoga,
concocting a new popcorn spice mix, or dreaming about coffee.
