I’m Raksha, Product Leader with a master’s in finance & over 5+ years of experience living in the U.S. I bring a strong background in product management, fintech, and smart mobility. My journey has been shaped by resilience, from working at Chick-fil-A during my early days in the U.S. to building a six-figure career. I’m passionate about diversity, inclusion, and empowering women in tech, especially from South Asian backgrounds.

As a mentor, I emphasize practical advice and real-world examples over theory. I aim to guide mentees on navigating career transitions, acing product management interviews, and growing professionally. My approach is built on gratitude and optimism, helping mentees stay motivated, break limiting beliefs, and gain confidence. With my deep knowledge of fintech, product management, and strategic decision-making, I can help others succeed in their careers and embrace new challenges.
