Description

"Conversation offers the antidote to apathy, the catalyst for relationships, and the birth of the next idea!" Abhay Dandekar has spent much of his life in conversation with people from every generation. He is a devoted father and husband, and an avid fan of sharing stories about the South Asian experience. Talented individuals are making progress in every profession, every genre of art, every journey - the South Asian diaspora has folded these into our collective ongoing narrative. We are better off to hear them shared broadly and inform ourselves. "Trust Me...I Know What I'm Doing" presents a snapshot of this ongoing dialogue! Abhay is a proud American who draws upon deep cultural roots from Maharashtra, India. He was born and raised by his parents and grandparents in Los Angeles, and now lives with his family in the Bay Area. Abhay has been a physician for over 20 years, and is profoundly committed to medical education, advocating for children, and advancing equitable healthy outcomes in our health systems and communities. Developing trust through dialogue and conversation has been a foundational bedrock in his journey. Abhay is an enthusiast of all forms of art, takes pop culture and sporting matters seriously, and yearns to be outdoors as much as possible. Most importantly, while Abhay encourages impactful exercises in intellectual rigor and curiosity, he is also someone who isn't afraid to often dance like an uncle. “Because every story told is a lesson learned. Because every lesson learned is a story waiting to be heard!”
