From medical school dropout to psychology graduate, 

From practicing marketing and digital innovation to building his own startup on parent-child psychology,

Through his journey, Vijay expresses his desire to serve parents and children struggling with mental health issues and also continue growing as a person.

Born in Kenya, Vijay spent most of his life in the UK before moving to Australia seven years ago.
