Vision & Goals for ATA
- I have a passion for our Culture and Compassion for our People. I am from Aldie, Virginia working as a Program manager and active in the DMV area community services. My ATA vision is to preserve and propagate Telugu heritage across all communities while building a great Youth engagement platform for our culture to flourish.
- If elected as a Board of Trustees member, my goal is to drive importance to the younger generation of Telugu origin to bridge cultural gap for our first and second gen Youth, grow cultural prosperity and inculcate a sense of community service.
