"I stand tall and I'm proud to declare - I shape the future. I am a teacher.” - Pinki Majumdar
Pinki has had quite an interesting journey and broken many a barriers along the way to achieving her two STEM Master's degrees, building a fulfilling teaching career and being recognized in Harvard for her research project. She has always strived towards making a difference in every child’s life and has worked tirelessly to positively impact the lives of others around her.
For her teaching extends beyond just a profession, it is her passion and she is on a mission to break every myth that surrounds the teaching profession.
“Why is the profound role of teaching often overshadowed by societal perceptions?
Why don't more individuals aspire to become educators?
On this milestone birthday, I stand tall and I’m proud to declare, 'I shape the future. I am a teacher.” - Pinki Majumdar
Pinki Majumdar is the owner and founding visionary of Quriokidz, an education platform that aims to change mindset through cultures of thinking. She is also a Math Specialist/ Coach at Stevens Cooperative School and a Mathematics Teacher at Summer Institute for the Gifted. She is also a great connector and brings people together.
During her photo session we got to spend the day with her getting to know her and understanding her mission. As a teacher, Pinki feels that spreading knowledge, to keep on communicating and mixing with new people is the most important thing. “You never know what might click and with whom”, she says.

Pinki's Woman of Science / STEM transformative photo shoot
About her experience with us of the day, Pinki said, “It was amazing! For a day I felt like a princess. When I came in here I was very scared because as a teacher we don’t come in front of the camera and a photo shoot is something that I had hesitated over for a period of time.
This shoot was very important for me to grow and I would like to use these pictures for building my business portfolio.”
“As a Scientist turned Photographer, I understand how it feels to have your unique traits and talents sidelined by your professional titles.
Women in science also have a creative side, a spiritual side, a quirky side and a sensual side and all these unique facets of our personality complete us. This bespoke transformational portrait experience is designed to celebrate all these facets that extend beyond your white coats, your labs, your coding and software where you can be authentically your truest self.
Maybe you are a dancer, a musician, a fencer, an artist, a handbag collector, a romance novel writer….come celebrate yourself.” - Kapu Patel
