Speaking
For audiences ready to stop asking"how do we improve the system?", and start asking what it should become.
"We are preparing children for a world that no longer exists. The 6 Quotients are how we fix it."
For 12 years I've worked at the intersection of math, technology and human development. I've taught children, trained educators, written textbooks now used across India, and founded a learning company built on one belief, that education must prepare humans for what AI cannot replace. I bring that belief to every stage.
Signature talks
Five conversationsaudiences remember.
Every talk is customised to the audience. I do not deliver the same speech twice.
- 01
Preserving Human Potential Before Artificial Intelligence
The defining education question of our generation. Why marks no longer measure what matters, what AI cannot replicate, and the framework parents and educators need now, not in ten years.

The 6 Quotients: Educating for a Post-AI World
A deep dive into the framework built across 12 years and 8 published books. IQ, EQ, SQ, CQ, AQ, XQ: what each one means, why all six matter, and how to develop them in children, teens and learning environments.

Why Math Is the Most Misunderstood Subject in the World
A talk for anyone who has ever heard a child say 'I hate math.' A reframing of math as language, art, philosophy and superpower, drawing on India's mathematical heritage and the science of how children actually learn.
