Priyanka Agarwal - (Co-Founder & CEO)
Priyanka manages a little bit of many things: product, finance and operations. A perennially confused over-achiever, Priyanka graduated Wharton with 2 degrees (business & engineering), started her first company in college, worked at KPMG, Goldman Sachs & McKinsey, all before co-founding Wishberry with Anshulika. Priyanka believes crowdfunding is the answer to everything, be it buying an iPhone 6 for herself or a Nap pod for the office or even raising seed financing for Wishberry. "Screw it, let's do it!" she says for any and every crazy idea, inspired by the even crazier Richard Branson. Well after all, crazy is her middle name.
