Abstract into Jainism | Meghan Shah Jain Lifestyle | HS/College/JNF Why is it that we rarely learn about Indian artists during art history? Our current generation has the opportunity to change the mindset about careers in the arts and showcase the talents of Indian artists to the world. Join me in my session to learn about the career of an Indian-American artist and the steps she has needed to take to get this far. This session will be extremely interactive with opportunities to express yourself through various mediums of art forms.

An Actor's Life | Sonal Shah Career & Networking | HS I'm an actor in Los Angeles. I chose an alternative path, but I find Jainism in almost everything I do. In this session, I'll share stories about my journey breaking barriers in entertainment and answer any questions in regards to following your passion.
And Action! Prerak Adhuria Social Issues HS Every day, each of us is a version of ourselves. And based on the situation, we are perceived differently for it. What is the right way to "play" your role? Whether you're a confident trendsetter or the shy kid in class, how do you become the best version of yourself? These are questions everyone comes across. Come find out at my session!
Anger Management | Meghna Shah Jain Lifestyle | HS/College In today's fast paced life, where everyone is multitasking and stressed out over many issues, getting angry over anything and everything is very common. This session will discuss what causes someone to get angry, its after-effects, how to manage and control anger, as well as how to stay calm in any adverse situation to lead a peaceful life.
