"From the moment I entered this world, my parents, Reshma and Amit Jagasia, knew my path would be unique. Despite the initial uncertainty surrounding Down Syndrome, they embraced it with love and dedication.
My mother vividly recalls the intuition she felt throughout her pregnancy; a subtle yet undeniable sense that something was different. It was as if I, even before my birth, communicated with her and guided her with an unspoken assurance.
Upon my birth, the diagnosis was confirmed, and my parents embarked on a journey that would shape our lives forever.
Recognising the importance of early intervention, they devoted themselves to my growth, spending countless hours each day in therapy sessions.
Through occupational, physical, and speech therapy, they nurtured my abilities, enabling me to flourish despite the challenges I faced.
As I grew, so did my dreams. Supported by my family’s belief in me, I started baking, discovering a newfound passion that ignited my creativity and independence.
Now, as a budding baker and aspiring model, I want to inspire others. I believe everyone deserves a chance to shine, and I’m determined to walk the ramp for Gucci someday.
With my family's love and the support of those who believe in me, I’m ready to chase my dreams and prove that everyone has a place in this world."
