As the author of the #1 Amazon bestseller Brown Girl Like Me and award-winning children's book The Spaces in Between, Jaspreet has established herself as a vital voice in contemporary literature. She is passionate about gender issues, taboo subjects and encourages positive social change in both the Asian community and wider society. Her work tackles issues related to gender discrimination, mental health stigma, the postcolonial immigrant experience, and more.

Jaspreet has received numerous accolades, including the Asian Women of Achievement Award (Arts & Culture), the We Are The City Rising Star Award (Education), and was voted one of the Top 10 Inspirational Sikh Women in the UK. Since delivering her TED Talk in 2017, Jaspreet has performed for the Royal Family at the Royal Albert Hall and Westminster Abbey, and appeared across BBC, Sky News, The Metro, and Stylist Magazine. She is a current Research Fellow at the University of Edinburgh’s Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and is working on her next two books, Quiet Feminism and How Poetry Saved My Life.
