Co-Founder at Krya Consumer Products
📍 Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Preethi Sukumaran is the Co-Founder of Krya, a personal care brand rooted in classical Ayurveda. An alumna of IIM Calcutta, she leverages her prior brand management experience to build a business "from texts, not trends". Colleagues describe her as intelligent, hardworking, and possessing a sound marketing mind.

She is passionate about conscious and sustainable living, a journey that began with clean eating and intensified after a personal hair crisis. A year-long backpacking sabbatical across Europe and India, which she calls her "unlearning year", was a formative experience that shaped her philosophy.

Her company was founded after she was told her hair was permanently damaged at age 30, which sparked a quiet revelation to find solutions in traditional Ayurvedic texts.
