Nisha Jalmi, MS (she/her) currently resides in Oakland, California and works as a Vocational Rehab Counselor. Nisha is an intercountry, transracial adoptee from Goa, India. In 2009, she embarked on an international search to reunite with her birth mother. A few years later, her journey back home was featured in the documentary, YOU FOLLOW: a search for one's past .

After the nationwide tour of YOU FOLLOW, Nisha became a public speaker, group facilitator, adoptee advocate, and published writer for PACT: An Adoption Alliance. She continues to share her personal evolution and work by other adoptees at TheAdopteediary.com.

Nisha later realized how her experience of family separation intersected with animal rights, which has led her to live a Plant-based/Vegan lifestyle to combat not only animal cruelty, but also, racism, the current climate crisis and food injustices. Nisha’s passion for adventures and education sparked her commitment to invest in traveling the world with dear friends or alone on the open road. With the current travel restrictions, she has made time to listen and heal without distractions. Nisha values The Universe, herSELF, Mother Nature, personal growth, and new experiences.

Reena Ray is a Costumer, Designer, assistant, a world traveler, a jokester with a work ethic, a sister, a lover, and rarely a fighter. She has worked alongside designers for Beyonce and Keanu Reeves. Her role as a costume assistant have allowed her the opportunity to work for films such as Jumanji, Dunkirk, and Bill & Ted 3. She has also helped costume assist on shows such as HBO’s Insecure, Showtime’s Shameless, and the NBC hit series “This Is Us”.

Last year Reena was able to flex her creative muscle by costume designing the 1979 based period short film “Devotee”. When she’s not dressing the cast, she loves to travel and to volunteer her time at Medical Missions throughout the Philippines. From Paris to Thailand, Reena loves exploring and traveling and absorbing the diverse cultures this world has to offer.

Her ability to relate and joke with others is what has helped her gain friends across the globe. She is currently a Costume Coordinator on Showtime’s “The L Word: Generation Q”, Her goal is to eventually work her way into a writers room, while transitioning to the big screen. Daily exercise and cooking yummy recipes with her boyfriend Darryl are the activities that have kept her sane during this crazy global pandemic.
