My husband Mr. Raj Joshi, full backup support to me, sacrificed a lot and encouraged me to pursue my studies. Then I did Doctorate in philosophy in English, Bachelor in legislative law and Masters in legislative law. In year 2011, I was selected for the post of Principal in BBPS Modinagar, Ghaziabad. I tried not to only talk about facilitative leadership but also demonstrated my commitment to it by providing authentic opportunities for my staff members to grow as education leaders and I am happy that I am able to bring everyone together for a common goal and that is “To create an army of humanitarians”
