Tiasha Banerjee
Deputy Chief Executive Officer
During her Fellowship with Teach for India in Pune, Tiasha got first-hand experience of being a teacher in a low-income private school for 2 years. It pushed her to explore this field and build her knowledge and understanding of the development sector in India. This led to doing a Masters in Development from Azim Premji University, where with a diverse set of people, issues to discuss, and insight to gain, Tiasha was able to gain an interdisciplinary perspective on this sector. Before this, she completed her Bachelor's in Mass Media (specializing in Journalism) from Sophia College for Women, Mumbai. Working in different capacities with several not-for-profit organizations across the country, she realized the vastness of the fundraising world and the importance of it for any organization, leading her to join AQEF.
