Bio

I'm an entrepreneur, wife, mom and immigrant.

I was born and raised in 6 countries and spent the majority of my childhood getting to explore the world. I also started my first business when I was 5 and built 3 more before I graduated high school. Because, #yeswecan.

I landed at UNC Chapel Hill with the vision to start my own impact-driven company. After completing a double-degree in Business & Psychology, I spent the majority of my career in social entrepreneurship, tech and product @ DonorsChoose, Ashoka, General Assembly and Guild Education before starting Zeta.

By day, I'm the Founder and CEO of Zeta, a financial institution dedicated to helping young families thrive. Recently, Zeta was acquired by Acorns (on the same day my first child was born!) so I've shifted my efforts to helping them launch family-oriented products for millions of American families. I feel like this was the work I was meant to do and feel privileged to get to do work I love everyday.

As a side note, and in an attempt to share my privilege and experience, I've been making small angel investments. I'm most excited about ed-tech, fintech and pet tech and write checks between $5-20k. I aim to do about 4-6 deals per year. I also serve as an Entrepreneur in Residence at Agora Initiative because I'd love to see more lady founders take over the world.

My dream is to become the next Indian Oprah and start my own dog sanctuary somewhere in the mid-west. Till then, I live in Washington DC with the hubs & our 2 dogs.
