Sharanya Pabba

Sharanya Pabba was born into a family where girls’ education wasn’t valued, yet she fought to pursue her dreams. She secured a job in an MNC, but life had other plans—at just 23, she was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. Two painful years later, she emerged victorious. Marriage brought happiness, but another storm followed—a severe COVID infection with 60% lung damage. Still, she persevered. With 14 years in IT and 8 years mentoring students, she now guides aspiring professionals and supports cancer patients. Her journey exemplifies resilience, hope, and self-belief—proving that no challenge is insurmountable.
