He is an alumnus of Vivekanand Institute of Technology, Mumbai, and USC Viterbi School of Engineering, Los Angeles. His insatiable passion for mountaineering has led him to climb mountain ranges across the world, including the Western Ghats, the Northern Icecap in Chile, and the Nepalese and Indian Himalaya.Joisher is the first plant-based athlete to stand on the very top of Mt. Everest, and Mt. Manaslu (the 8th highest mountain in the world), and the only human in the entire world to have climbed to the top of an 8000 meter mountain – Mt. Lhotse (4th highest) as a true 100% Vegan (diet and mountaineering gear).He is also a respected photographer, and his work has been published in National Geographic, BBC Earth, Space.com, Himalayan Journal, The Outdoor Journal, and several other newspapers and magazines across the world.Joisher regularly travels across India and the world to speak about his life-transforming journey of climbing Mt. Everest as a plant-based athlete in hopes to inspire his audience to go plant-based. Joisher continues to train hard both mentally and physically and dreams of leading an all Vegan expedition to the very Top of the world – Mt. Everest in near future.In addition to his dedication to climbing, Joisher is passionate about two causes: raising awareness about the disease of Dementia and spreading the message of veganism and vegetarianism.-----The HealthSuttra is the premier provider of personalized nutrition and healthcare counselling services.
