Currently she enjoys being a Marketing Coordinator at Titan Worldwide, a full service outdoor advertising company. Manuri finds her deepest satisfaction in volunteer work and wholesome living. She is also a Sunday School teacher in Los Angeles.

Creating inner change with wholesome living is an important part of her life. Manuri believes service is the highest form of work we can do.

Volunteers don't get paid because they are priceless. Out of many things Manuri had the opportunity to donate, she's most proud of donating her long hair, platelets; blood every few months and most of all, her time.
