She co-coached her daughter's team to win the Massachusetts state championship in 2024 and compete in the world event.
Following these experiences, Dr. Mukherjee is also a board member and advisor to GummyBearsRobotics, a nonprofit organization focused on expanding access to STEM education, where she provides strategic guidance, technical mentorship, and fundraising support. She maintains active membership in several professional communities, including IEEE Women in Engineering and the Data Leaders USA network.
Dr. Mukherjee attributes her success to resilience—a combination of determination, hope and perseverance—despite advice from others who doubted her chosen path or questioned her ambitions. Inspired by a passion for physics and mathematics during her school years, she chose Electrical Engineering after excelling on a statewide entrance examination comparable to that used by the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology. Dr. Mukherjee's many meaningful contributions have been acknowledged through distinct accolades, including a trainee grant from the Medical Imaging Conference sponsored by IEEE between 2007 and 2009 and a travel fellowship from the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society, awarded in 2006.
On a personal level, Dr. Mukherjee takes great pride in her daughter's accomplishments as a student leader supporting outreach initiatives for GummyBears Robotics while also pursuing her artistic passions in singing and dance. Outside of her professional work, Dr. Mukherjee enjoys exploring emerging technologies and sharing her experience with the community. She envisions UNAR Labs LLC making transformative contributions to accessibility, helping ensure that inclusive design for the visually impaired becomes a standard rather than an exception. Seeing educators use the platform she helped create to deliver accessible learning materials remains one of her most meaningful achievements—an impact she values as deeply as traditional corporate milestones.
