Episode description

In this episode of Eyeway Conversations, George Abraham speaks with Ummehaani Bagasrawala, a corporate executive at Deutsche Bank and the founder of Pearls of Vision. Ummehaani shares her journey navigating the structured world of banking, her early career in marketing and sales, and the personal challenges she faced as a visually impaired student seeking accessible education.

She talks about facing exclusion in the workplace, the lack of systemic support for students with disabilities, and how these experiences motivated her to start Pearls of Vision, a volunteer-led initiative that connects blind students with scribes, readers, and career guidance.

Tune in to hear how one woman turned everyday hurdles into meaningful support for others in the blind community.

For scribe or reader support, or to volunteer, reach out to Pearls of Vision via WhatsApp or social media.
