About Prosper
Prosper was founded on a simple conviction: the right guidance at the right moment can fundamentally change a trajectory — whether you are building a company, pursuing an elite career, or competing for admission to a top program.
Priya Purewal
Priya brings a rare combination of operating experience, venture investing, and strategic advisory to every client and founder she works with. Her career has spanned consulting at Deloitte, growth-stage investing at March Capital, and venture investing at Smash Capital — giving her firsthand perspective on what separates exceptional candidates and companies from the rest.
She holds an MBA from Columbia Business School and a BBA from the University of Texas at Austin McCombs School of Business. At Columbia, she focused on capital markets, corporate finance, and entrepreneurship while investing at early-stage venture funds backing consumer brands and underrepresented founders.
Priya founded Prosper to bridge the gap between ambition and execution — providing the caliber of guidance that is typically reserved for those already inside elite networks.
