As a first-generation immigrant born in the U.S., Ami always felt there was a need for more South Asian representation in the media world.  Her passion took her to UC Berkeley, where she majored in Communications.  She started her career with E! Network and Hollywood.com before moving east for graduate school.  She received her Masters Degree in Broadcast Journalism from Boston University.  In 2006, she worked at CNN headquarters in Atlanta where she helped create the Middle East “Crisis Desk” connecting stranded U.S. citizens with their families.  Ami moved back to California and joined Inside Edition as a producer.  After a successful stint behind the camera, Ami served as a host and producer for Lux Lifestyles, a luxury travel show on Wealth TV. Prior to joining OWN, Ami built her own beauty business serving brides, models, and Hollywood talent.  Her work has been seen in Seventeen Magazine and major red carpet events including the Golden Globes.  In addition to her business, Ami has also been a model for the DOVE brand as well a number of South Asian publications and apparel companies. Ami gets her energy and passion from connecting with people – whether that be through reporting or producing the news, helping a bride look beautiful on her big day, or spending time with her husband and two beautiful children.
