Growing up, my family took regular trips to India, where my dad made sure I visited our family&#8217;s farm and connected with the land that nurtured him. I skipped through fields of bright yellow mustard crops, shred stalks to feed the buffalo, and learned how to suck sugarcane juice out of fresh sugarcane\u2014 I loved every bit of it. Agriculture was something I loved deeply and personally. Then, during my sophomore year of college, my dad and I watched Food Inc. The contrast between what I&#8217;d experienced and what I saw on screen was jarring, and it launched my career. I want to fight climate change and protect people and ecosystems from pollution by making sustainable agriculture the norm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: Where did that journey in agriculture policy take you after college?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>AS<strong>:<\/strong> After college, I was studying for the LSATs, but my heart wasn&#8217;t in it. I simultaneously applied for internships in D.C., and ended up moving across the country to work as an unpaid intern in Senator Barbara Boxer&#8217;s office. Her agriculture staffer brought me into meetings and let me write policy memos. I was hooked. I loved understanding how laws impact people and how they should change. That led to a role in Senator Debbie Stabenow&#8217;s office and eventually a position on the Senate Agriculture Committee during the 2013 Farm Bill markup. It was eye-opening: agricultural politics are driven more by regional interests than party lines, and I saw firsthand how money and power shape who gets access to lawmakers. My last Senate role was with Senator Cory Booker, and I learned a lot about how to approach my food and agriculture policy work with love, care, and equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: What does \u201ccare and love\u201d for policy mean?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>AS: Fundamentally, policy is meant to serve people. The law is supposed to ensure fairness and protect people and communities from pollution, inhumane working conditions, and corporate greed. We\u2019re so far from that ideal these days. As one of my favorite podcasters says, \u201cPoor people are bound to the law and not protected by it. Rich people are protected by the law and not bound to it.\u201d Loving and caring policy centers people\u2014ensuring their needs, rights, and livelihoods are protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: What motivates you to keep doing this work, especially when it\u2019s challenging?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>AS: From the incredibly talented and compassionate colleagues I work with to the people and families who deserve better, people motivate me. People-power fuels me. There\u2019s also an element of hope and concern for the future\u2014like, if I\u2019m not part of this fight, who will be? I want to be fighting for a better future. That\u2019s also a motivating factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: What gives you hope about climate-smart agriculture in California?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>AS: \u201cSoil health\u201d was not a mainstream phrase when I started working on food and agriculture policy more than 10 years ago. Now, from state departments of agriculture to the halls of Congress, people know what \u201csoil health\u201d means. That\u2019s massive, and we have California\u2019s Healthy Soils Program to thank for making soil sexy nationwide. California\u2019s known for leading on climate resilience. I\u2019m hopeful that my home state will continue leading the fight to reduce agricultural pollution and supporting farmers\u2019 transition to healthier more climate resilient production systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: Is there an example from your work that you\u2019re particularly proud of? t<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>AS: When Prop 4 passed in 2024, it was the first time California&#8217;s climate agenda finally included sustainable agriculture. NRDC and CalCAN made that happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">California has a long history of passing landmark climate and natural resource bonds. Agriculture was always left out, despite its enormous potential to fight climate change. We changed that. A coalition of 17 organizations successfully fought for an entire chapter in [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.noregretsinitiative.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CalCAN-progress-report-5-23-25.pdf\">Prop 4<\/a>] to be dedicated to sustainable agriculture. This is precedential.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prop 4 wasn&#8217;t just a policy win. It was four years of relentless work\u2013negotiations, storytelling, field days, lobby days, and bringing farmers and community members face-to-face with legislators. It showed me the real power of coalition-led advocacy: that you go further when you lean on each other&#8217;s expertise, trust each other&#8217;s knowledge, and fight as one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CalCAN can reshape how legislators, regulators, and communities think about the future of food and farming in California. While so much political space is dominated by groups representing a single, narrow slice of agriculture, CalCAN represents something different, a climate-resilient vision for what agriculture could be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: What drew you to serve on the Stewardship Council?<br><\/strong>AS: The people at CalCAN are who drew me to the Stewardship Council, advocates who lead with integrity and heart. When I was offered the opportunity to work alongside them, it was so easy to say yes. I&#8217;m looking forward to helping guide CalCAN toward advocacy that confronts the status quo and transforms industrial agriculture towards healthier alternatives that fight climate change, protect natural resources, and safeguard people. I&#8217;m excited to help CalCAN grow into its full potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CC: What advice would you give to the next generation in this space?<br><\/strong>AS<strong>:<\/strong> I have two pieces of advice. One, decisions are made by people who show up persistently\u2014so if you care about something, if you want to change something, use your voice to fight for that change. But it can\u2019t just be a one-time thing. Be persistent and keep showing up. Two, don\u2019t forget who you\u2019re fighting for. Your community can fuel you in unbelievable ways. Listen to them because their stories sustain and power you when the going gets tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"24542\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?resize=16%2C12&amp;ssl=1 16w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/CO-3.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Arohi looking at soil nodules under a handheld microscope.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"24543\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/DSC09782-scaled.jpg?resize=18%2C12&amp;ssl=1 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Arohi with her great-uncle on their family farm in rural India.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This profile is part of an ongoing series that introduces members of CalCAN\u2019s newly formed Stewardship Council.
