The Person Behind It
About Niharika
I truly believe the shortest distance between two people is a story. Over the last 7 years, I have performed on stages around the world, sharing hundreds of little anecdotes from my life to entertain live audiences. It feels amazing when the rooms laughs or sighs as a single unit. It feels even more amazing when someone says 'that happened to me too!'
I run Hong Kong Stories, a non-profit organisation to help Hong Kongers tell their stories and find a new way to connect with each other. Before this, I spent 10 years in professional roles at Goldman Sachs and Airdev. I experienced the value of sharing stories to find my voice, understand different pespectives, and collaborate effectively.
I started Backstory in 2024 to apply storytelling to business contexts, focusing on finding stories archived in our experiences to build genuine connections.
I am keen to work with teams to explore how storytelling can benefit them.
Testimonials
What clients say
“...it worked like a charm. It helped me get to know my team at a deeper level and actually brought us closer.”
Ramon Rajan
Team Lead, Indiahikes
“What made the experience special was her ability to create a safe, engaging space where participants could exchange stories with ease. Her facilitation was thoughtful and inclusive, making storytelling feel natural rather than performative.”
Tanvi Tilve
Founder, The MixedBag Company
“We knew the workshop was a success when we had to ask people to leave as it was time to shut the studio... the ice had truly broken... The otherwise shy-to-open-up people had big smiles on their faces.”
