Akshita Ganesh — CEO
I'm a product and growth leader who's spent the last 12+ years working in early- and growth stage technology companies. I've been part of the 0-1 journey of finding product-market fit, scaling to the first $10M and $100M and the foundational pivots needed to stay valuable as markets and consumer expectations evolve. I'm passionate about healthcare and education because of their ability to significantly change the trajectory of human lives. My current area of study is exploring how AI can transform the broken experience of managing our health - at the doctor's office, or at home. I write at https://akshitaganesh.substack.com/, and I'm building at growthstory.in
