Board of Directors
Sangita Jayaraman
Ms. Jayaraman has worked in the technology industry for over 20 years in various Product and Marketing leadership roles. She is a Microsoft veteran, where she learned how to build strategies for the long-term, bring diverse sets of people together over common objectives, and—perhaps, most importantly—realize the inherent value of people and businesses. Most recently, she worked at LinkedIn and ZipRecruiter, developing technology solutions for the labor market, and is passionate about helping people find jobs that are worthy of them.
As an immigrant, woman, and mother, she strongly believes in the power of education and community to help women find their voice and wings. She has worked with multiple nonprofits in India and the United States to help move women's causes forward.
Ms. Jayaraman has a Masters in Computer Science from Texas A&M University, College Station, and an MBA from INSEAD, France. She is based out of Menlo Park and is excited about partnering with Upward Scholars to serve our community.
