I have seen the lives of my students change and a love for learning bloom in their lives. I have seen growing inquisitiveness in my daughter with a zeal to learn everything. That's my greatest honor and highest award.

Have you or your children or students ever been so bored with the curriculum they are supposed to use that they'd rather not study? I feel their pain- I've been there. Set curriculum, while providing a way to navigate educational requirements, can stifle inquisitiveness. It doesn't give knowledge-hungry students the time and space to learn about something deep and wide. I have been an inquisitive person since I was very young. I had the zeal to learn everything about what I wanted to learn. I was so full of why's and how's all the time. But the restrictive curriculum of traditional public schools never left any room for inquisitiveness. Thankfully, my parents got me encyclopedias and books to satiate my zeal for knowledge. Thus, my zeal for researching kept getting stronger as did my tenacity to ask tough questions. Eventually, in the 9th grade, I went on to research a traditional water harvesting system that led me to be felicitated as a Junior scientist of India, which is awarded by the prestigious Indian Science Congress to about 30 to 40 students from all over India). Honestly, I was just having fun researching and learning without any intention of winning anything. Today, research is still super-important to me, it is still my passion, but in a different way. Having been a researcher since my school days, I want people to get rid of the notion that research is limited to university-level education and to help them understand that anybody can research. This is something I am super-passionate about and want people all over the world to understand that research is not limited to university academia. Anyone can research! To this end, I create Research-based Unit Studies (with my products being called Research Notebooks) on various topics. Each Research unit is designed with an enormous amount of research and comprises hundreds of questions, about 5-10 hands-on activities, and 8 different ways to record the research findings. Through these units, your student/child would learn how to conduct surveys and interviews, how to creatively express their research results for the common folk how to write a research paper, how to collect, record, analyze, and present data, develop a business idea based on their research, and a lot more, while learning about a topic in depth.
