While her original dream was IIT, it was not to be and she did BBA from Rajasthan University.

She initially struggled with the language barrier while living in Vizag. But on her husband's encouragement, she did her PG certification programme in IIM-V. Also, IIM-V announced a certification programme for experienced people in 2018, which was around the same time.

¡°I was preoccupied with academics for three years from 2018 to 2021. My husband was supportive throughout,¡± she said.

¡°If the institute starts a PhD programme, I will pursue it,¡± she added.

She has achieved her dream despite her age. No reason others cannot do the same.
