Benish has been dubbed a problem solver. Because if she doesn’t have the solution to the problem at hand, she will search one out and make it work.

Benish has worked with over 60 startups as a growth strategy consultant and lawyer, stepping into the fashion world with a nascent womenswear brand called Eva Khurshid NY.

Her work with Eva Khurshid gave rise to Before the Label, which combines her strategic background with her knowledge of the business of fashion. She’s no stranger to the startup world, this being her third startup.

She sold her first startup, her second one is self-sufficient, and she spends all her time on making Before the Label what it is. Benish is a thought leader on the fashion-tech industry, crowdfunding, and strategy.

She has been published in Forbes, VentureBeat, Huffington Post, UpStart, NextWeb, Geekwire, and more.

Her background (aside from law) is in strategic consulting with private equity firms and general counsels of Fortune 500 companies.

She’s also an adjunct prof these days, just for fun and a mentor with the Fordham Foundry. You can follow Benish’s musings on Twitter: @benishshah.
