Meet the Team

  • Manasa Mannava

    FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

    Manasa is a Software Engineer and loves to bring in a mix of creativity to her work. Moving to California has inspired her to explore the coastal towns, experience places the local way and Kayak more often. She felt that the process of searching and compiling things to do at travel destinations from various online sources is tedious and requires effort. She thus had an urge to create a tool that eases yet customizes all this process and Cosmo Millennial was born!
