Ashmeeta is strong, thoughtful, courageous and inspiring. Faced with change and uncertainty from the unexpected loss of her husband, she has moved forward with strength and resilience. Moving with her children across the country to start a new life and business exemplifies her drive to strive for the best for her and her family no matter how difficult the path may be. – Rina Kato

Ashmeeta is an amazing parent, friend and daughter. She gives everything for her family and when her husband got sick, she jumped into action to be there for him, searched for medical answers while still balanced the needs of her children. When he passed, by herself, she handled everything. From taking care of finances to packing up her home and moving, she remained strong and persevered.

Ashmeeta continues to lead her family with strength and love in this next phase of her life. Now, in her new home in Seattle, she is running a business, taking care of her two children at home, guiding her oldest who is far away at college as well as care for her ailing father. She is always busy, but still manages to be emotionally and physically there for others. Ashmeeta has been and continues to be the incredible person whom I have been blessed to call my friend for the past decade. Michelle Koles
