In 2019, Rashmi’s grandmother, Asha, was diagnosed with cancer. As Asha battled cancer in India, the rest of her family battled the difficult question of how to care for her while living on the opposite side of the world. With the surprisingly limited number of remote care solutions on the market, and even fewer that cater to non-tech savvy elders, Rasmi realized there was an opportunity to create a more intuitive solution, through the use of technology. Asha AI was founded with the mission of connecting family members to each other and to care.
In addition to Asha, Rashmi has founded several small businesses, advises a handful of Y Combinator companies, and is a board member of a couple of nonprofits focused on helping increase access to care.
