Mini bio
How it started.
Brinda’s love of mountains began with family trips and grew while she studied biotechnology engineering in Shimla. Her TEDxSRCC story follows early treks, a move to Dubai and a job at GSK, where she kept traveling and building her Instagram account.
Making it her work.
In her TEDxSRCC story, she identifies a February 2020 assignment representing Himachal Pradesh tourism as an early turning point. Her travel content grew from scenic films into personal stories. Forbes India placed her at No. 57 in its 2024 Digital Stars list and highlighted collaborations with Apple, Google and Audi, plus her first nationwide CEAT television commercial.
Beyond the next trip.
Brinda says weekend trips and casual Instagram posts gradually became a community. She co-founded the travel company Keego and, with childhood friend Akshay Goel, founded WAQA to share Indian specialty coffee. Lonely Planet included her as its India correspondent in its 2026 founding class.
