Meet Kiran

I'm a teacher by profession, and my love of mentoring and helping people to grow into their best selves permeates through everything I do. 

​

A Mindful Move, my self-help book is the guide I wished I’d had through 29 relocations. Now I live in sunny San Diego, my 30th move! My work on mindfulness and moving is featured in The New York Times. ​

​

In addition to my experience as an author, I’m an impassioned motivational speaker and podcast host of "Uprooted by Unwanted Change". Conferences, workshops, and radio, are also some other places where I’ve spoken. I also love mentoring others in public speaking.

​

I was born to teach, and specialize in the teaching of reading and writing. My students are of all ages, from kindergarten to university level. These days I mostly tutor children with dyslexia, as an Orton-Gillingham trained reading specialist. 

​

Outside of my diverse set of professional interests, I’m a proud mum of two adult children and an adoring grandma to two grandsons. I also love to sing karaoke, dance to live music, and enjoy San Diego’s many gorgeous beaches.
