Nandita has a B.A. in English from Williams College and a M.S. in Conflict Management & Resolution from the University of San Diego, though most of their learning has come from community, peers, elders, strangers, kids, and art. They also study and practice the somatics of living, aging, and dying to better support individuals and groups in tumultuous times.
