Start a project About the founder  Partnerships


Hi, I’m Trisha, the human behind Figurative :)


I started Figurative to bring a bit more soul, story, and intention into how startups present themselves. After years in tech — first in big tech, then in startups — I saw how many great ideas struggled to be expressed clearly. Figurative grew out of that realization.

Before this, I helped build Numeric from seed to a $28M Series A with customers like OpenAI, Brex, and Figma as founding product designer and #7. I later learned the highs and lows of building a company firsthand as an Entrepreneur in Residence at Antler VC.

Long before that, I learned the power of storytelling when I started a YouTube channel at age eleven, growing it to 5M+ views and a community of 20,000 in just two years. That experience taught me how creativity and clarity can connect people — even from a bedroom halfway across the world.

I was born in California, raised in Pune and Singapore, went to college in New York, and somehow found my way back to San Francisco — where I now get to help founders turn complex ideas into stories people actually care about.

Figurative is, in many ways, a reflection of everything I love: tech, creativity, and using both to help founders make ambitious ideas resonate.
