With a career that bridges law, technology, and entrepreneurship, Khiree has turned his vision into a business that reflects both creativity and impact. His journey is a testament to the power of betting on yourself and pursuing innovation with relentless focus.
Before launching Aura House, Khiree began his career as an attorney in Silicon Valley, where he gained firsthand experience navigating the intersection of law and emerging technologies.

These early chapters laid the groundwork for the entrepreneurial ventures he would later pursue.
In addition to building Aura House, Khiree serves as the General Counsel at Aero Technologies, a semi-private jet company founded by the Co-Founder of Uber.

Balancing the demands of both CEO and General Counsel roles, Khiree demonstrates what it means to lead with vision while executing with precision.
Khiree’s path from law school at Georgetown to Silicon Valley attorney, from the White House to startup boardrooms shows the truth behind this episode’s theme: innovation is the bridge to the future. His story will inspire anyone striving to merge purpose with progress, and to create businesses that not only succeed but leave a lasting mark.
