About Lumina
Guidance for Your Education Abroad, Led by Jisha John
Your Journey to Global Education Starts Here
Our Story
Built on a Simple Belief
Lumina began with a simple belief: that the right guidance can turn a dream of studying abroad into a confident, well-planned reality. It is a founder-led practice — you are counselled first-hand by an educator and engineer who has spent more than a decade mentoring, training, counselling and teaching. Because Lumina works entirely online, students across India and abroad get that same guidance from the comfort of their home. We don't just process applications — we build futures, one student at a time.
