Assistant Professor, National Law University, New Delhi
About
I am ambitious, passionate, and well-read. People who do not know may me may describe me as reserved. However, close friends, family, and colleagues describe me as a warm, generous, charming, and intelligent person. There are people who actively look out for humor in life, I, however, fortunately, fall in that rare category of goofy people who fall into humorous situations all the time (without actively ever looking out for one). Consequently, funny narratives from my adventurous lawyer turned academic life; and travelogues from around the world never fail to crack people up.
I am fond of spicy food and I like experimenting with world cuisine (I may not be the best cook in the world but I will feed you!)
I can contribute to building castles in the air to executing real-life big projects. Being a woman, I do manage to multitask as well. I have organized an international legal conference in Melbourne with participants including judges, lawyers, and CEOs of legal-tech companies from countries such as India, the USA, NZ, and Canada along with handling my Ph.D. studies, working as a lecturer, and handling daily chores that are a part of life in foreign countries.
I love vintage fashion and frequently shop for such items!
I am willing to relocate globally in countries that follow commonwealth law (US, UK, Singapore, etc)
