Preeti Adhikary is someone that I admire for so many reasons. She’s an innovator that has taken a non-linear career path, she’s someone who builds in public on LinkedIn, and it’s obvious that she’s enjoying the journey, not the destination which shows up in her impact driven career path. A concept that is easy to imagine, but incredibly difficult to accomplish at times.

Preeti is the founder of The Great Nepali Diaspora, a community that connects immigrants from Nepal in a professional manner. As Preeti puts it, immigrant communities can have very strong social ties, but not always strong professional ties. With The Great Nepali Diapsora community, Preeti has been able to connect Nepali talent by having over 2,000 members, 47 chapters, and over 75 events.

Before becoming a founder, Preeti was in all sorts of roles. She’s been in banking, leadership roles in startups, and a scout in venture capital. She graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in economics and eventually found her way to graduating from the Yale School of Management aka Yale SOM with a Master in Advanced Management. Like many innovators, Preeti has worn many different hats throughout her career.
