Hi, I'm Rupal....

I am…a maker, a tinkerer, a questioner, a human, a daughter, a first-generation American, an educator, a learner, a designer, a wannabe poet, an optimist, a dreamer, a doodler, a seeker, a connector, a friend, a dancer, a musician, a singer, a basketball enthusiast, a traveler, a foodie, a thought partner, a work in progress.
