Riddhima Mehendiratta

I have always been drawn to the power of a good question—and to the conversations that follow it. I am an English educator, Head of Department and TEDx organiser, with 17 years spent teaching, mentoring and creating spaces where young people can think boldly and find their own voice. An alumna of Welham Girls’ School and Fergusson College, Pune, where I majored in English, I have a particular fondness for literature, debates, lively discussions and ideas that challenge the obvious. I love travelling, discovering new cultures and collecting stories along the way. Through education and TEDx, I hope to keep doing what I enjoy most: bringing people, ideas and possibilities together.
