Masharika is the founder and CEO of Lightwell, a strategic consulting firm supporting mission-driven organizations with specialized offerings — leadership coaching, experience design & facilitation, and organizational design expertise — to solve complex issues, surface fresh perspectives, and support wellbeing in the workplace. Masharika has had the experience of consulting for DISH, and serving on the boards of SPUR, Our Children, Our Families Council, and currently on the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. She is also a trustee on the Cathedral School for Boys board, and a member of the Dean’s Advisory Council at the LBJ School for Public Affairs.
