Ayushi Sinha graduated Cum Laude from the Princeton University Department of Computer Science, received a certificate in Cognitive Science, and is a member of the Product team at Nines, a startup bringing AI to radiology diagnostics. Having co-founded her own startup, WellPower, a vertically integrated Uber for water filtration and distribution in East Africa, she is particularly interested in social entrepreneurship.

Yustha Yoga is a desi-inspired athleisure founded by two sisters, Ayushi and Astha. The co-founders grew up doing yoga with their grandparents in India and playing dress-up with their mother’s Banarasi saris. Fast forward to today: they are committed to bringing the fabrics and patterns that women in their family have worn for generations by designing south-Asian inspired athleisure.
