Divya Bhandari

Divya, driven by her passion for voice, choice, and safe spaces, embarked on the Teach For India Fellowship after experiencing an epiphany during her volunteering stints at CRY. Teaching students in a low-income private school for two years deepened her understanding of what makes children thrive. Recognizing her love for cultivating a culture of joy and learning, she chose to extend her impact as a Program Manager. In this role, she coached, mentored, and trained Fellows in their 2-year journey while building a citywide sense of community through several projects. Now at AQEF, Divya is your go-to person for all things related to people & culture. When not at work, you can find her engaging in conversations with just about anyone - embracing the beauty of human connection, binge-ing on Bollywood trivia, or perfecting that last note on her ukulele!
