As a sports enthusiast pursuing a post-graduate degree in Social Entrepreneurship, my exposure to sport and development happened through my research dissertation on football academies of Kerala.
The power of sport, I believe, lies in its humanizing ability - the ability to offer hope and build relationships that offer opportunities for self-growth. From my professional experiences, I have realized that sport works great as a means to engage and support people, especially the youth, and help them recognize their potential as well as the structural barriers that have inhibited their growth.
Since 2013, I have been involved with various kinds of sport organizations across the not-for-profit, private and governmental sectors.
