Chai Wallah uses tea to bring a bit of India to the states and connect people who aren't so different after all.

Tasha was also the founder of award-winning Nashville, Tennessee social enterprise The Contributor street newspaper.
She was the winner of Whole Planet Foundation's Small Change for Big Change contest and discovered authentic chai during the trip award to India.

She has experience as a homeless outreach worker and spent years photographing and interviewing people who live on the streets. Most recently, she's an audio producer and wants to continue sharing the stories she hears.

Most of all, she's passionate about community and diversity—the answers we have for each other and those we can find together. She finds that the more she gets outside of the familiar, the more she learns about herself.
