Contact me if you are from India.
Hi, I'm Parvinder. I reside in Mumbai, India although Boston has become my second home. I started my career by assisting NGOs in Mumbai and teaching the under privileged. Later, became a franchise owner of a Japanese Math and English Learning Institute called Kumon.
The biggest role I played in my life is being a mother to my two sons. Having guided them to their respective career paths which they are now very passionate about, I realized how important and confusing this stage of their life is. Hence, I decided to become the bridge between a student's passion and their parents' expectations. As a certified Global Career Counsellor from UCLA and a University Ambassador at MCPHS, I now assist students to select their respective colleges and future career paths.
I look forward to helping you!

I have been working in the field of international student enrollment since 2011. I joined MCPHS in 2016 and now work with applicants from Africa and the Middle East.
These two vast and heterogenous regions of the world represent a variety of unique education and healthcare systems. Many MCPHS students will return home after graduation to help improve the public health infrastructure or provide direct clinical healthcare services.
The Longwood Medical Area (LMA) of Boston is the optimal setting to gain the academic and professional experience to launch a career in healthcare. As you progress through your tenure at MCPHS, you will grow and learn along with many likeminded students, researchers, and clinicians. The admission process is partly an introduction to the different ways you can leverage this unique setting to advance your career, and then potentially proceed to help improve health outcomes in your home country.
I look forward to helping you in your healthcare journey.
