From Boardrooms to Breathwork
Before wellness became her full-time focus, Diya spent two decades in senior executive and creative leadership roles, including at Vogue and Style.com, where she developed campaigns for the world’s top fashion and luxury brands, including Chanel, Dior, Burberry, Louis Vuitton and many more.
She knows firsthand the pressures of high-stress careers, unrealistic beauty standards, and the endless trends that reinforce them.
After an injury in 2012, she discovered Pilates and embraced healthier eating, sharing her journey on her first blog, Fitness Dorks, which quickly gained a following. Readers began requesting workouts, inspiring Diya to certify as a Personal Trainer, and later as a Pilates Teacher and Nutritionist—all while balancing her professional career.
In 2023, she left the corporate world to focus on wellness full-time, helping others cut through trend-driven noise and discover their own path to balance and health.
She has taught Pilates and Lagree at the world’s leading studios including Heartcore (London), MAD (London), Framework (Berlin), and Bodyrock (Dubai). A busy mom of two, she splits her time between the US and abroad.
