Ava Pipitone
Co-Founder of Suyana
CEO of HostHome.community
Founding Team Member of Aashna Living
Embodying peaceful evolution, they scale tools to thrive in a world of design for a non-existent normative. Focusing on the untapped potential of our communities, Ava leverages their experience founding companies to permeate markets and reorganize how systems are accessed and deployed.
“What would happen if every human on the planet could unlock their genius and contribute? I believe there is an economic, cultural, and planetary incentive to reduce systems friction at every dimension of society. Suyana starts with the human system and cultivates individuals’ abilities to echo their coherent contributions to the collective genius of our species. Aashna is that intergenerational eco-conscious community that develops the physical spaces needed. And HostHome holds those in need on their journey home.
“I plant seeds and assemble teams of gardeners to steward their growth. I believe we are here to find harmony and fully express our inner peace. We are the embodiment of peaceful evolution.”
Isabelle Malouf
Co-Founder of Suyana
Originally born in Boston Massachusetts, Isabelle began her healing journey at the age of 13 and identifies as a survivor of childhood trauma and the mental health industrial complex.
In recent years, Isabelle obtained her BS from the University of Mary Washington in Biology where she also minored in Chemistry and did undergraduate research in toxicology. Before joining Suyana Isabelle was a researcher at Johns Hopkins University in the Transgenic core and taught high school science in South Carolina with Teach For America. Making scientifically informed mental health resources more accessible is a passion that comes from Isabelle’s experience healing from her own childhood trauma and experiencing the lack of neuroexpansive resources and spaces outside of traditional talk therapy.
