Hi there! I’m Akshita, and here are the hats I wear:

Senior PM & Venture Partner
Founder
& Author
Journalist & Activist

I’m a first-gen Gen Z Indian-American woman and have been highlighted in 15+ media outlets, awarded by the University of California, and interviewed by UC Davis’s Chancellor.

Catch my story on Amazon Prime Video (or YouTube) now…and check out my work below :)


I’m currently a Senior Product Manager at Spotnana (a Series B startup) in the travel-tech space where I lead Hotel & Ground Transportation! I previously worked as a Product Manager at Publica (an ad-tech startup), Product at Intel and prior to that, in Data Analytics at UCD.

I’m a NextGen Venture Partner, a Primary Mastermind Network member, a VC University Scholar, and an On Deck Fellow. I also published investment memos as a Contrary Research Fellow.

My academic experience includes a Masters in Data Science from UC Berkeley and a B.S. in Computational Cognitive Science from UC Davis.


I founded The REVIVAL Zine, for which I received funding from the University of California Center for Free Speech and the UC Davis Silver Community Service award.

I recently published my second book, a collection of poetry and short stories,Butterfly City and I previously published “Where Do the Crows Go?” — along with ~15 articles in various publications.
