Biography

Kimi is a Holistic Nutritionist, Co-Active Life Coach and Certified Hypnotherapist who firmly believes that small changes in daily habits will lead to big changes your life. She leverages her unique combination of expertise in HR, management consulting and coaching to help individuals and organizations effect positive change. Kimi firmly believes that great organizations are created through developing great leaders.

Meditation came into Kimi’s life at a crucial time when needed to make some tough decisions. It helped her find calmness and clarity during a difficult time, and has been part of her life since then. Having reaped the benefits of her practice for almost 10 years, she wanted to share this skill with others who also feel overwhelmed in our modern, fast-paced world. Kimi became a Certified Teacher with the Search Inside Yourself Institute in 2019.

In her role as Regional Corporate Wellness Manager with ICAS MENA (part of the global AXA group), Kimi helps manage the 80+ clients that ICAS has in the Middle East and North Africa region.

In her prior position as Senior Manager in the HR team at Expo 2020 Dubai, Kimi created and managed the Employee Engagement, Wellness, Internal Communications and the Learning & Development strategies for this region’s first mega-event.

Kimi was born in New Delhi, India and grew up in Toronto, Canada. She ran a successful nutritional consulting business in Toronto, Canada and was a teacher at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition before moving to Dubai in 2014.
