I believe that every individual deserves the right to express themself, and my goal is to actively advocate for the prioritization of South Asian mental health. I joined Games for Seva based on its mission to foster collaboration and creation among adults and youth. Through this group, I’ve been introduced to the world of game design as a means to express Hindu values in digestible ways. This association has taught me how to work well in a team full of distinct personalities, as we work interdependently to bring about the best in each other. These skills provided me with the resources to become a better mental health advocate, writer, and public speaker. Beyond my passion project, I love Games for Seva due to its foundation in service as it has allowed me to feel more connected with my culture, which made my teamwork and game-designing skills more versatile and collaborative. Personally, I think I have been able to augment my leadership, creativity, and entrepreneurial skills, through public speaking exercises that have pushed me out of my comfort zone. Each member of this group provides a diverse perspective that makes the end product of our projects more enriching and valuable. Joining GFS has been one of my best decisions, and I am so grateful to the individuals, who have become some of my good friends and mentors, for providing me with opportunities truly like no other. Games for Seva has converted me from a consumer to a meaningful contributor.
