Avid Reader

Give me a good book and I’m happy for hours. Books taught me to dream bigger than my circumstances.

Mama

Papa

My mama, Ekta Saini, is my greatest inspiration! She taught me to increase my standard of giving, not just my standard of living, and to be kind to 100% of people, 100% of the time. From education and entrepreneurship to our 800+ community partnerships, we've shared so many beautiful adventures together. She's my biggest cheerleader!

My papa, Sanjay Saini, has taught me the importance of hard work, generosity, and family. Through his example as an entrepreneur, I've learned that success is not just about building businesses, but about using what we have to make life better for others.

Dog mama

Meet Charlie, my tiny happiness coach. He reminds me every day that joy is simple: show up, wag your tail, and love people big.

PACEMAKER PATIENT

At age 12, I received a pacemaker after being diagnosed with complete heart block. It was a frightening chapter, especially when I worried I might never dance again. But I refused to let fear define my future. With faith, determination, and lots of dance practice, I found my way back to the stage. My heart may need a little extra help, but it's full of big dreams!

At 12, I got a pacemaker. Some kids get braces; I got a battery! It taught me the lesson I now share on every stage: as long as you have a heartbeat, you have a purpose.

BURNS SURVIVOR

At 20, I survived severe facial burns that changed my life. Healing taught me that our worth is never determined by our appearance and that true beauty comes from the way we treat others. What once felt like one of my hardest chapters became part of my mission to encourage people to love themselves and embrace their own stories.

Grandparents

My grandparents are an important part of my family's story. Their lives remind me of the sacrifices, values, and love passed down through generations. I'm grateful for the roots that shaped our family and for the opportunity to carry forward a legacy of kindness, education, and service.

Rajeev papa

Rajeev Papa holds a special place in my heart and in our family's story. I'm grateful for the love, guidance, and memories we share. One of life's greatest blessings is having people who remind us where we come from and who encourage us as we grow.
