For Srinivasan, whose background is in engineering, product management and consulting, this is a foray into a creative space, one in which she has found purpose in sharing not only her own heritage with the wider community, but encouraging others to do the same.

“That is when I realized just as I was profoundly proud of my heritage, there are so many others that make up our community here that are equally proud of their own culture, but we all consume it through our own silo,” Srinivasan said, “I started thinking there is a lot of diversity, (but) we don’t show interest in art forms in other communities, and we also miss the common ties that bind us.”, Srinivasan moved to Saratoga with her family last bloch dansoft adult ballet slippers - pink February, Her daughters are enrolled in Saratoga schools, and she has been busy meeting her neighbors and becoming entrenched in her new community, While she has found the city to be unique, she said she also noticed the “siloing” is in progress, It was out of that observation that Mosaic was born..
