Vindra Amar
Vindra Amar is well groomed, her skin flawless, hair, makeup, clothes and jewellery elegantly understated. This businesswoman, attorney and notary public is also co-owner of Brava International, producers of local Twist juices, with her husband, Rawlins. Over the past 16 years she has developed her own special style and acumen to become an astute businesswoman. “My philosophy of life is to be the change you wish to see in the world,” she says, quoting Mahatma Ghandi. Nice to say; hard to live by. But if anyone embodies the idea, it would be Amar. She’s careful to give due credit to her family of strong values and high achievers and to her Alma Mater, Naparima Girls, where she was a Vice House Captain and represented her school at four Music Festivals. While at the University of West Indies (UWI) she sang with a pop group, Cruze. “Then I developed nodules on my vocal cords,” she says with a trace of regret, “and can’t sing as much anymore.”
