Mansi Hukmani

Founder of Understory

Hi, I’m Mansi.

I was born in Jaipur, India and grew up in Belize, a tiny country in the Caribbean. Like every brown kid, I went to school to become a doctor, but soon realised I was too neurodivergent to sit through 12 years of classes.

Fast-forward, I’ve started a tech company, advised some pretty cool startups (I still do, DM if you want to chat), and I am now building a media company called Understory, revealing the stories beneath the stories we’re told in technology, health, and culture.

I’ve been featured in Bloomberg, Business Insider, Reuters, and a German magazine called Handelsblatt for some of my takes.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Health Science from the University of Miami and a graduate degree in Psychology from New York University.
