Fuzia was founded in 2012 by Riya Sinha from Palo Alto, California, a young high school student and a published writer. At first, the platform was called “Fuzia Writing Club” which was a space for women to connect and appreciate each other’s creative works. Riya was only 11 years old when she commenced on this journey. The idea was to provide a safe space in order to encourage women to be confident about their creative works.
The co-founder and director, Shraddha Varma, joined Fuzia just two years ago but with her confidence and leadership motivation she has become an integral part of the organization. Shraddha manages the global team of Fuzia and has helped it grow tremendously in a short span of time.
