Originally from India, I was born and raised in Dubai, and moved to the Netherlands to pursue my master’s degree. My multicultural background has given me a unique perspective on the shared struggles we experience, particularly regarding the intersectionality of our identities. Having to navigate the world as a brown woman has given me an understanding and insights to understanding how our experiences vary based on our identities, and of how racial and gender identities play a role in our own experiences and shaping the people we are.
