Meet Ashvini

A Finance scholar, educator, beauty queen, speaker and philanthropist.

I am Dr. Ashvini Sundararaju. My journey has been defined by a commitment to excellence in education, personal growth, and community service. Holding a PhD in Finance, I have dedicated years to research, teaching, and mentoring students while pursuing my passion for empowering individuals through confidence and self-belief.

In 2026, I was crowned Queen Coimbatore 26, organised by Fashion Collective , a milestone that strengthened my mission to represent confidence, inclusivity, and authentic beauty.

As a proud plus-size woman, I believe representation matters. My story is proof that success comes in every shape, size, and background.
