Meet The Kishore Crew

In the bustling neighborhood of Newman Village, the Kishore family brings great energy and a heartwarming story to their community. Led by Dr. Deepan Kishore, the dedicated veterinarian, along with his wife Blessy, an accounting manager, both investors and partners in private equity investments, they settled into their new home in 2022. Their children, Derek and Addilyn, add laughter and excitement to their family dynamic, both attending Prestonwood Christian Academy.

Origins and Education

Originating from the sunny districts of Tamil Nadu, India, Deepan and Blessy pursued higher education with fervor. While Blessy earned her MBA from Karunya University, Deepan graduated from the prestigious Madras Veterinary College in India. His journey led him to further studies at the University of Missouri Columbia and clinical training at Oklahoma State University, shaping him into the trailblazing veterinarian he became. 

Furballs and Fluff

Their household isn't just filled with love; it's brimming with furry companionship. Smiley, their lovable Labradoodle, wags his tail in excitement and is always ready for a game of fetch or a cuddle on the couch. But amidst the laughter and play, there are family favorites that make their bond even stronger.

Passions and Pastimes

Deepan's love for cricket never wanes, and the family shares a passion for cheering on sports teams, transitioning from OKC Thunder to supporting the Dallas Mavericks and Cowboys. They also relish dining at Indian restaurants, savoring the flavors of home.
