Arshiya Kherani

Arshiya Kherani began her career in affordable housing finance, where she saw firsthand how capital, when directed intentionally, could transform communities. That early work shaped a core belief she carries into everything she does: storytelling is not just communication, it's a tool for building power.

Today, Arshiya is the founder of NIYAH Advisory, a leadership communications practice that has worked with 1,000+ founders and executives across sectors. She helps leaders make their vision legible to the people who need to hear it — investors, partners, and the communities they serve.

A former Head of Marketing at a VC-backed fintech and founder of Sukoon Active (featured in Forbes, ABC News, and Al Jazeera), Arshiya brings a cross-sector lens to questions of influence, identity, and impact.
