Water Experience

Since the beginning of my career, gender issues have been at the core of most of the water projects that I have managed. Additionally, I have also worked to help address justice and equity issues in water projects, when I worked in India and now in the US. Women bear the most weight when there is a lack of potable water resources. They miss out on education, employment and livelihood opportunities at the cost of their invaluable time and health. I have always worked towards highlighting these issues in my work and writings.
