Heartistry

Priya Shah @priyashah16 is triggering social consciousness to challenge barriers and empower communities from the inside out. As a Chicago creative and entrepreneur, Priya has built a network of artists and collaborators dedicated to igniting social awareness and change through art and imagination. Shah began volunteering in developing countries at a young age, which inspired her to fill the gap between business and the social sector so she went on to earn degrees in both Accounting & Finance from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. Priya's passion for art and travel has fueled her purpose to help better communities in Chicago and around the world, leading her to truly follow her calling when she founded The Simple Good @thesimplegood a non-profit with the mission to connect the meaning of good from around the world, empowering youth to become positive activists through art and discussion.

Priya Shah exemplifies so much of what Heartistry is all about, and is the living definition of what we call "heARTivism".
