Last week Gretchen Radler introduced us to new member Sheetal Savant.  Sheetal was an Army brat and was born in Mumbai.  She worked as a Journalist in India before getting married and moving to the U.S. in 2004.
 
Sheetal is trilingual but has a basic understanding of quite a few Indian languages.  She holds a Bachelor's in English Literature, with minors in Psychology and Philosophy; Master's in journalism, and a Master's in political communication.
 
Sheetal is co-writing a script with five other writers, that they are planning on pitching to digital platforms in 2022 and is also working on a novel. 
 
Sheetal is the Owner of Masala Box.   It has evolved from a catering company into teaching friends and family the nuances of Indian cooking. She frequently teaches non-credit Indian cooking classes at the Metropolitan Community College, Fort campus.
She is a guild member of the Bags of Fun, an organization that was founded in the honor of six-year old Gabby who would carry a bag of fun when she was undergoing treatment for brain cancer. 
 
Sheetal has two children and is married to Ameet.   Welcome, Sheetal!
