Amita loves traveling, reading, singing, and capturing the small everyday events of life. She strongly believes in voicing one’s opinion, a quality that has been imbibed in her ever since she was a kid. Her parents, Mr. Kishan Kr. Lohiaand Mrs. Sushila Lohhia have always motivated her to be independent and Amita’s mother is her greatest confidant. Furthermore, she is of the notion that everyone should live their dreams because life is not about ifs and buts. She takes up every opportunity that comes her way with great zeal and enthusiasm. Being a perfectionist, she works with every ounce of energy and gives her one hundred percent at whatever task she is assigned. Amita is an optimist who does not give up easily and rises stronger after each fall. She is a strong-willed woman who wants to leave a mark, with her little acts of kindness as she believes that no act of kindness is ever wasted. Amita is a woman of principles who sticks to her virtues and morals. She actively promotes the welfare and development of each unprivileged person, just like her in-laws. Late Mr. Ramchandra Mundra, her father-in-law, and Mrs. Kaushalya Devi Mundra, her mother-in-law are old inhabitants of the state where they have made significant contributions for the society. Amita is a loving mother of two kids, daughter Chesta aged 16 years who is a high schooler pursuing Science, and 10 year old son Dhruv who is in Grade V.
Her message for everyone is to keep chasing their dreams and to never run away from any situation, no matter how difficult the time is because -You Only Live Once.
