Desis for Progress Meet and Greet with Desi Elected Women, July 24, 2019

Desis for Progress and the South Asian Asian American Women’s Political Alliance hosted Montgomery Township Mayor Sadaf Jaffer, Kentucky State Representative Nima Kulkarni, DC Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner Trupti Patel, and me at a meet and greet in Washington, DC. I had a great time meeting so many politically engaged, progressive South Asian Americans!

Last night, I had the opportunity to join Montgomery Township Mayor Sadaf Jaffer, Kentucky State Representative Nima Kulkarni, and DC Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner Trupti Patel at a meet and greet hosted by Desis for Progress and the South Asian American Women’s Political Alliance in Washington, DC. I had a great time meeting so many politically engaged South Asians! (Also, I now see a lot of photographic evidence for how much I use my hands when I talk!)
