Delice Mascarenhas — Co-Founder
"Life's too short not to make every moment count." That's my mantra! My motto in life is to leave a positive mark wherever I go and to spread happiness. With my background in Psychology and my interest in child psychology, I have founded The Glee Box where I use psychology concepts to create an ecosystem for parents to meaningfully engage with their children and foster emotional intelligence in children I have 5 years of experience working with startups and I previously joined the founding team of a B2B SaaS company, Hivel. Here I was employee #5 and I built and streamlined processes in HR, Finance, and Operations. My passion lies in connecting with people. I'm a Personal Branding Specialist, helping others build their confidence and personal brand. When the sun sets, you'll find me in my element as an emcee, hosting events that range from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations. This is my 'happy place,' a world where I truly shine. I've had the privilege of hosting over 100 events, from birthday parties to corporate events and everything in between. I have also worked as a Global Recruitment Consultant with international organizations to hire for roles in the development/impact space. On a personal note, I'm an avid traveler, forever curious about new cultures, and always on the lookout for my next adventure. Giving back is close to my heart, and I spent seven fulfilling years with Make A Difference, educating children in shelter homes in Mumbai and leading city operations. I thrive on bringing order to chaos, though occasionally, I do enjoy a bit of the chaos itself. Let's connect and explore a world of ideas! Whether it's brainstorming new ventures, diving into psychology, solving team challenges, nurturing culture, or crafting startup strategies, I'm all ears.
