Why Trust Me with Your Jewelry Style?
Jewelry is in my DNA, a vibrant blend of my Indian roots and Southern heritage that shaped everything about how I see beauty and adornment.
My parents came to the U.S. from India with a love story that defied tradition. Disowned by their families for their love marriage, they built a new life in America. I was born in Nashville, TN, where the rich tapestry of my Indian roots intertwined with Southern charm. Think colorful gemstone statement jewelry.
Where It All Started
From a young age, traveling, fashion, and shopping were my favorite pastimes. Jewelry and distinctive clothes have always been central to my personal expression and feminine elegance.
I began by taking jewelry-making classes with my younger sisters when we were growing up, which turned an artistic hobby into a lifelong passion.
From Corporate America to Ulka Rocks
After retiring with over 30 years in Corporate America leading global teams and strategic initiatives, I was ready for a creative second act. So I combined my love of shopping, fashion, travel, and design to create Ulka Rocks.
This brand embodies my journey, offering unique, high-quality gemstone jewelry that tells a story and celebrates individuality and independence. Every piece I select or design reflects the same standard I hold for my own collection.

Ulka’s Favorite Gemstone
Why Tourmaline Rules My Collection
Tourmaline is my personal favorite because no other gemstone offers this kind of color range. Watermelon pink-green, deep indicolite blue, rich rubellite red, mint, warm peach, and everything in between. Every tourmaline has a personality, and I never get tired of finding new ones.
