At the age of just 24, where majority of the individuals struggle for focus in life, Ramya began her professional journey with a popular advertising firm where she developed a knack for spotting trends and anticipating the ever-changing market scenarios long before they came into being. Boasting of a strong academic background, Ramya has a major in advertising and marketing which, in turn, bolstered her in key areas like communications, design, consumer culture, social media, ethics and anthropology among others.
Soon after, the entrepreneur in her nudged her to embark on her entrepreneurial journey. She began by providing turnkey solutions to F&B brands across India, and then expanded to include solutions for designing, social media content, public relations, menu engineering, and influencer outreach.

She has received the BW Disrupt 30 under 30 and IMPACT 30 under 30 awards.
Ramya's greatest strength is that she built an organization from the ground up, even when there was a lot of competition.
