I have a specialization in digital marketing, certifications in public speaking and effective communication and a degree in dentistry. I had a passion to pass on the skills to people in healthcare migrating to North America, Australia & New Zealand from around the gIobe. I have an experience of creating more than 24 online courses with more than 6000 students enrolled on my website itdonline. I have also completed certifications in public speaking & effective communication from Harvard University, University of Washington. In addition to those, I have certifications in NLP & a specialization in Digital Marketing. I was given an opportunity to be a trainer and preceptor for students in various streams . My philosphy is not to look for 'perfection', but always strive to become 'better than yesterday'. I love to read about 'Epigenetics' and 'Neuro-Linguistic' programming besides Dentistry. I am a keen follower of Zig Ziglar, Tony Robbins, Michael Singer, Thich Naht Hanh and Dr. Joe Dispenza, and use their teachings in my daily life. I am looking forward to see you in my course.
