Salina Shah
Founder
Salina founded Ahimsa Consulting LLC to work with communities and companies to improve health outcomes through whole plant foods. Her primary focus is on the South Asian community, which bears a disproportionate burden of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
​
Salina is a former actuary and executive in healthcare analytics by profession and a certified master vegan educator by passion. She discovered a deep connection to the dharmic concept of ahimsa, learned about plant-based nutrition through the eCornell certification program, and adopted a healthy vegan diet as a breast cancer survivor.
She is also a board member of the Actuaries for Sustainable Health Care nonprofit, and supported the production of SLAY and They’re Trying to Kill Us documentaries.
