Hello, I'm Shyamli Suneesh

​Thank you for coming to the About Section to know more about me!​

​

Here's a fun fact about me: I studied in 4 countries, here's how - I did my schooling in Dubai, did my bachelors degree in India, was an exchange student in the USA and then went on to do Masters in the south of UK! Currently I am a PhD student in the North of UK. I grew up surrounded by city lights and fast-paced days, but now I rise to the stillness of misty fields and morning birdsong. It’s funny how life often unfolds in the most unexpected ways!

​

Apart from being a robotics researcher, I'm a kid with a curious mind who loves to explore and always in the thrill of trying something new out of my comfort zone! From time to time, you’ll find me baking a new cake recipe, diving into a page of psychology, cycling through nature, journaling my thoughts, making spontaneous art, or traveling to new places and meeting strangers who soon become beautiful memories! Because at heart, I’m a wanderer of ideas and places, forever drawn to new adventures, shifting perspectives, and the stories people carry!

​

I grew up in a family that values education to unlock the power of one's dreams. My parents worked hard and dreamt of giving me the education they were not able to pursue, and that planted in me my passion for education and my fire for exploring the world of opportunities around. I feel blessed for all the global exposure that I have received through my hard work and perseverance along with the support of loved ones and mentors.

I aspire to create opportunities for education and growth for those around me and have dreamt of creating a big impact in this world, ever since I was a young girl trying to navigate the world as a phoenix who rose and braved through her mountains of ashes. Despite the rollercoaster rides life challenged me with, I never gave up and created my own blueprint to rise above the clouds. I wish to offer the same strength and support to those around me who need a guiding light.​

If my story lights even one path and sparks even one dream, then I know I’m on the right journey because changing one life can change the world.
