I have had the privilege of working as a sensitivity reader for major news outlets and journals, such as Bloomberg and the British Medical Journal. In this role, I carefully examined articles and publications for tone and content, ensuring that they were respectful and considerate while representing marginalised communities.Additionally, I was also tasked with sensitivity reading Ms Aletta Andre's debut novel and children's book titled "Het meisje dat door India fietste" (The Girl Who Cycled Through India) in the Dutch language. The book is based on the remarkable story of Jyoti Kumari, a 15-year-old Dalit girl from India who cycled her way back to her hometown, Sirhulli in Bihar, during the pandemic situation in 2020. As a sensitivity reader, my role was to ensure that the portrayal of Jyoti's story was done in a sensitive and respectful manner, and that it accurately depicted her experiences as a young girl from a marginalized community.Through my work as a sensitivity reader, I have developed a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for the importance of sensitivity and inclusivity in the media and literature. It has been a privilege to contribute to projects that promote empathy and understanding, and I am grateful for the opportunity to use my skills and expertise to make a positive impact in the world.

As a Program Director at The Bahujan Collective, I was responsible for overseeing various teams, including the content and social media team, PR team, and teams working with writing coaches and consultants. In addition to managing these teams, I assisted with the recruitment process by identifying suitable candidates and ensuring representation from marginalized groups.My key accomplishment at The Bahujan Collective was organizing Ignite 2022, a creative and therapeutic writing workshop taught by Linda Jones, a Creative Writing Consultant, Journalist, and Grief Recovery Specialist. I also served as a literary mentor for the workshop, designing and delivering a refresher course to assist participants in clarifying any doubts they had about the concepts taught by Linda Jones.At The Bahujan Collective, our focus was on providing a safe platform for the oppressed scheduled caste, scheduled tribe, and other backward communities in the Indian subcontinent. We achieved this by training individuals to express their own stories through art and literature in specialized workshops conducted by creative writing coaches, grief consultants, and painters from oppressed communities.
