Krishna helps CEOs and founders build enduring brands.

Over the past 20 years, as both an operator and an advisor, I’ve worked with founders and CEOs to build brands with enduring cultural relevance and commercial success.

I've led complex commercial turnarounds at Fortune 500 companies, and I've helped founders scale brands from hundreds of millions in revenue to billions​.

I created NKHL with a simple goal: to significantly increase founders’ odds of building a profitable, enduring brand. Our core belief is that advisory and operational support needs to be integrated, delivered at the right time, and with a long-term perspective.

We hope to join you on your journey, and for you to join us on ours.

"Growth is a result of having two strong approaches — the art of it and the science of it. We don't blend art and science. If you blend, you get mush. We toggle."
