Ayushi helps build, fund and advise more equitable and inclusive technology to better deliver government services.
Ayushi currently serves as the Deputy Director of the New Practice Lab at New America. Previously, she served at 18F as the Director of State and Local Technology, and more recently, on the leadership team managing investments for the US Technology Modernization Fund, a $1B fund to modernize technology and improve customer experience across the federal government. Ayushi’s work focuses on more equitably delivering government services to our most vulnerable constituents – including modernizing Wisconsin’s legacy system for Unemployment Insurance, co-authoring the Unemployment Insurance playbook used by states in response to COVID-19, helping to hire the first cohort of dedicated product managers for the Centers of Medicaid and Medicare Services, securing the historic approval for Login.gov to serve state and local governments for the first time, and improving the grants infrastructure for Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), which provides healthcare for more than 70 million Americans including 9 million children.
