      Career Counselor

      My path towards career counseling started while working with underserved students in Dhaulpur, an aspirational district in Rajasthan. Through my interactions with them and multiple other stakeholders, I realized the immense challenges students face when making career choices. Many find themselves stuck due to decisions made without proper guidance and awareness. Armed with knowledge I am determined to reach out and assist as many students as possible, particularly those who may not have had access to proper career guidance. Show less
