Leadership, they say, is not about a title but the impact you leave behind. Anchoring the final dinner for the Global Science Partners was not just an event for me, it was a moment of self-discovery. I had the privilege to bring a part of myself to life that I never imagined would hold such relevance in my journey. It wasn’t just about sharing my cultural heritage, though that in itself was deeply fulfilling. It was about showing that music (this universal language that connects us all) is a science in its own right. Its rhythms, harmonies, and vibrations resonate deeply, shaping emotions, inspiring actions, and fostering connections. In that moment, I realised the power of authenticity. Bringing my culture and passion to the forefront reminded me of the beauty of diversity and the strength it adds to any community. To everyone who made the dinner special: thank you for allowing me to share my world with you. Here's to many more opportunities to lead, connect, and grow. Thank you Global Science Partners for allowing me to lead you this Semester, Thank you Purdue University College of Science Lets go higher Next Semester!!!!!

🌟 Time for my 2024 LinkedIn Rewind - By Coauthor Well, let's start with - a decade ago, I embraced my first formal mentorship role at Purdue University. That experience sparked a journey that has grown into something much deeper—championing mental health, fostering inclusive leadership, and bridging technology with human connection. This year, 2024, reaffirmed a belief I hold close: real impact happens when we create spaces for others to thrive. It’s been a year of challenges, growth, and meaningful progress: ✅ Mentorship Impact: Expanded my reach through Purdue University Alumni programs, Indian School of Business initiatives, and platforms like topmate.io. ✅ Mental Health Advocacy: Strengthened efforts after heartbreaking losses within our community, reaffirming the importance of well-being. ✅ AI Meets Humanity: Explored practical applications of #GenAI in marketing, with a strong focus on keeping human connection at the core. ✅ Purdue Milestone: Celebrated one year on the Purdue University College of Science Alumni Board. ✅ Inclusive Leadership: Brainstormed ideas for workplace well-being and fostering truly inclusive leadership with upcoming brands in the region and aspiring talents across India. 💡 Looking ahead to 2025: I’m excited to continue to explore the intersection of AI and human-centric marketing, while doubling down on mental health advocacy in education and professional spaces. My goal is simple: leverage technology to enhance—not replace—human connection. Professionally, I also hope to play a stronger role in the technology business, contributing to the amazing Asia growth story that continues to inspire me. To everyone working to build inclusive, supportive spaces—your efforts are making a difference. Together, we can create a world where everyone can thrive. Here’s to lifting each other up, one meaningful connection at a time and here's wishing everyone a strong and happy 2025! #BuildingEachOtherUp #MentalHealthAdvocacy #TechForGood #CommunityFirst #LinkedInRewind #2024to2025
