She moved back to California when she was 13 and upon graduation from high school she traveled to Spain, Poland, Holland and Italy. She completed her undergraduate studies at UCSD in La Jolla, CA and studied abroad in England while she was in college. Amita decided to become a dentist through her volunteer work at free dental clinics in San Diego and joined the UCSF School of Dentistry. She graduated dental school in 2010 and was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon dental honor society upon graduation.
