College Teacher/Ordinary Professor/Assistant Professor/Associate Professor
Kolkata, India
I was born on June 11, 1972 , and raised in Kolkata , India in an Anglo-Indian family. I have 26 years of experience in teaching and research in the field of Jesuit education, foundations of education, teacher education, peace education, educational psychology, and educational leadership. Since January 2018, I have also served as the Vice-Principal (Education) of St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous), Kolkata - ranked as one of the best Colleges in India , with A++ rating with 3.77 CGPA (2017).
I love to teach and interact with my students. My teaching and research have been influenced by my passion to promote the value of equity in education, create diverse and inclusive educational solutions in the process of social reconstruction. I also believe that the emergence of cutting-edge technology in education, role of artificial intelligence and creative use of data science would eventually shape the future of education at the global level. How would these changes contribute to promoting equity in education remain to be explored.
I live in Kolkata with my supportive husband Kirtikiran Baptist Veigas and two wonderful children, Roshnee (15 years) and Ayush (8 years). As staunch believers of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (The World is One Family), my family and I are looking for opportunities to re-locate in order to provide for us a global , diverse and inclusive environment to live and grow as individuals.
