Get to know our guest:

Hi all! My name is Kaylesh Bolla. I identify as an American Malaysian Indian (it’s complicated lol, you can find out more this in the podcast episode!).

My roots are South Indian, and I also identify as Tamil. In my everyday life, I speak English and Tamil, and I’m trying to pick up some Telugu from my husband and his family.

Professionally, I’m an attorney working in the real estate space, and personally, I love learning with and from people. I’ve also been embracing more of my artistic interests lately.

After experiencing a significant loss last year, I turned to baking as a way to share awareness of infant loss and process my own grief. I’m not sure if I’m using the best approach, but I believe there’s a lot of value in being open about the journey.

I’m hoping to connect with people from all cultures and backgrounds through it. You can find my baking creations over on Instagram at @chaikaybakes.
