Today we’d like to introduce you to Arushi Kapoor.
Hi Arushi, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Art was always around me. I started working low-level jobs and internships in the art world. I went to a lot of art shows and museums. That was my intro to the art world.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Nothing in life is easy. It’s easy, it’s not worth it. Age can be used against young art dealers. You have to prove yourself by being honing your skill.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?

Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
Starting your own business is a major risk. I think risk is required for return. If you want to grow, you have to risk it.
