I'm Aishwarya Iyer, the founder and CEO of Brightland. I live in Los Angeles, California with my husband and two dogs. I am trained in classical Indian music and dance, adore reading, and enjoy spending time off my phone.
All of Brightland’s Chef-in-Residence Noreen Wasti’s recipes, especially this excellent spiced chickpea stew using our chili-infused olive oil and new spice blend (made in collaboration with Burlap & Barrel) and this turkish cheese pide with chili, Brightland honey, and herbs.
Kulfi Beauty. South Asian-inspired beauty, with the best eyeliner I’ve tried.

Listening to Priya Raghu, a tamil-swiss songwriter based in London – my favorite song of hers right now is Kamali.
