I live with a cat who’s convinced she runs the house and honestly, she probably does.
She minds her own business, manipulates all of us for treats, and walks away the exact second I try to pet her.

I’ve always felt connected to nature, watching, reading, and observing trees, birds, animals since I was a child. My mom taught me to pay attention to the lives around us, especially the ones who don’t speak our language but communicate everything if we listen. This eventually led me to bring a cat into my home. My cat is funny, emotional, dramatic, stubborn, always entirely herself, a full individual.

And she is safe. Warm. Loved. Protected.

Meanwhile, many animals don’t just lack care; they are hurt, ignored, abandoned, or harmed because of human choices, whether intentional or unintentional.

I come from architecture, design, and product background, worlds that ask you to understand people, systems, business, behavior, and the impact of what we create.
And I realised those same tools can create safer, kinder lives for animals who don’t get a voice in the systems that shape their fate.

That's what Interbeing is:

Where deep care meets practical action.

This begins with street animals in Bengaluru, but the vision is much larger than that.
It’s about rethinking how humans relate to non-human life, everywhere.
A world where coexistence is not an exception, but a norm.

I don’t have all the answers. I’m just learning, listening, and doing what I can. If this helps even one life, or helps someone else help one, it matters.
