I am a passionate educator and mental health advocate with over 31 years of experience developing and designing content for academic and non-academic publications. My background in Public Administration, B.Ed. in English and Science, and Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy has shaped my approach to fostering effective Child-Parent-Teacher relationships. In 2012, I founded 'Firefly – The Light Within' to deliver personalized workshops that empower students, teachers, parents, and school staff with vital life skills and safety knowledge. Apart from content development and editorial work for prestigious publications like Cambridge University Press and Oxford, I volunteer with NGOs focused on emotional distress, suicide prevention, and child safety. I also facilitate safe, confidential spaces for open conversations on social issues and enjoy creative pursuits like podcasting, voice-over work, painting, and running marathons. My commitment lies in nurturing well-rounded individuals through education, awareness, and support.
