While primarily focusing on public equities, Rashmi emphasizes valuing businesses akin to a long-term private purchaser, showing her strategic approach to investments.

Bringing her cultural heritage and multilingual skills to the forefront, Rashmi is fluent in languages including Thai, Hindi, Punjabi, Spanish, and English, reflecting her diverse background and ability to connect with various communities worldwide.
