I have been working as a Clinical Pharmacist in a long-term Care Pharmacy for over 15 years; having had a successful career and having worn multiple hats at work from being a clinical pharmacist to supervisor level positions, I always felt something more is my calling. My quest for real health care was always persistent. I have been privy to the blinding shortcomings in current medical system. When asked my superiors would say “what else would you expect from this Corporate world?” You don’t win against the Big Pharma1. That answer never satisfied me and my chase to be a true healer only increased.

The classical Ayurvedic training is from eminent and esteemed practitioners of India and the U.S. It is a 5 year long program and is equivalent to the Ayurvedic Doctor level program developed by National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA). During these 5 years I had the privilege of not only learning Samhitas (ancient texts written by sages) but also closely monitoring eminent Vaidyas (Ayurvedic doctors) from various parts of India (Pune, Kerala, Kanyakumari, Guntur) and the U.S on handling patients with various conditions and stages. The practical approach to various treatments during my internship in India was very enlightening. 

A month-long India trips every year became a ritual for me. I visited various institutes and incorporate those methods into my practice. During this time, I had the privilege of getting trained directly by Maha Vidwan, Dr. L. Mahadevan.  

I serve on the board of the California Association of Ayurvedic Medicine (CAAM) to inch toward my vision of bringing Ayurveda as the main medical science into reality. I am also a volunteer at National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA). 

I have a passion for teaching kids ancient Vedic sciences, I volunteer at Jeeyar Education Trust every week. I am also an active volunteer at The Art of Living organization.
