Kevin, Founder & CEO of Firstly
“My conversations with Khushali have been super helpful in giving Firstly a well rounded view of our mentorship software platform. Not only is she a super sharp strategic thinker but also an extremely empathetic person. Before my conversations with Khushali, we had a blind spot in our product -- the mentor experience. She speaks truth to her experience, and it has helped us identify where in the funnel mentors are likely to drop off. Because of our conversations, Firstly has been able to put together a product requirements document to fix our broken mentor experience, allowing us to create a more resilient and supportive community for both first-generation college students and the mentors that lift as they climb.”

Amrita, Co-Founder & ED of South Asian SOAR
“A long-time coming shoutout to Khushali for not only bringing in the money for us, but also streamlining every part of SOAR’s development from a GORGEOUS Airtable, to ensuring that we submit all of our grants, reconciling our budget, and of course snagging our corporate gigs. Beyond that, I just couldn’t imagine our team gathering without you and all the chill and wisdom you bring. Excited to continue seeing our development work grow with your support and leadership!”

Badie, Senior Manager at Hitachi Consulting
"Khushali is a rock star consultant. She is the definition of what it means to be a high performer. When we were at the same company together, she was one of the most valuable members on our team. The level of detail she puts into all aspects of her work and career exceeds many of her peers at the same level. She was an instrumental member of our team and helped to ensure that we were always meeting or exceeding our client expectations."

Liv, Mentee
“She was incredibly down to earth, ...she helped me feel more confident in my existing accomplishments which is incredibly important when imposter syndrome can be so prevalent within marginalized backgrounds. I really appreciated how willing she was to extend all and any resources that came to mind, and how friendly and open she was in doing so.”
