I am a medical doctor by profession but I am also an artist. The non-profit organization that I founded fights against youth drug addiction through art as a tool for prevention, therapy and rehabilitation. My goal is to promote health through art. I have experienced bullying and childhood depression myself and I got the main part of my healing from singing, dancing, playing drama and
drawing.

In 2018 I did an internship in Women’s Health Institute Robert Wood Johnson School of Medicine and I was asked to illustrate a picture book to promote Maternal Health. It was then that I decided to write and illustrate the book Why Have I Been Made So Ugly?
