Inspired by my collegiate study abroad experience, during which I had the opportunity to visit 15 countries across four continents, I conceptualized a tea company that celebrates teas from around the world.

 

Throughout my travels, I was particularly struck by the cultural significance of tea, especially in India. This led me to envision a brand that honors the ancient traditions of tea, with a focus on powerful women from the respective cultures' religious histories. For this concept, I chose to feature the Hindu goddess Kali, whose prominence in Indian culture spans thousands of years, as a symbol of strength and cultural heritage.
