Kavita joined the AAT Board in March 2025 after her daughter was diagnosed with aplastic anemia in 2023. Experiencing firsthand the uncertainty that comes with a rare illness, she was drawn to AAT’s work in supporting patient advocacy  and funding research.

Professionally, Kavita has spent much of her career in marketing and business strategy with Diageo and Unilever, working with teams across the globe to develop brands, grow businesses, and navigate change. She has also been involved with charities focused on youth employment and the arts, where she has helped with governance and strategic planning.

She lives in the UK with her family and loves cooking, long walks, and catching up over a good cup of tea (or occasionally, a great whisky).
