There is something particularly powerful about a mentor who was once a mentee.
Dibyashree Mahapatra from our Kolkata Chapter joined the Udayan Shalini Fellowship in 2016 as a Shalini. By 2021, she had returned as a mentor.
Professionally, Dibyashree holds a Master's in Applied Geology from the University of Calcutta and currently works as a Research Scholar in the Organic Biogeochemistry Lab at Presidency University. She also brings a year of GIS experience from CyberSWIFT Infotech and holds a Diploma in Optometry, conducting eye screenings at camps across the city.
Beyond the world of research, she paints, works with yarn, and dances, a reminder that the people shaping young minds are whole, layered human beings themselves.
We are proud to have her as part of this community.
