Sheel Gupta

Founder & Program Director
Sheel is a former tech executive who spent years driving growth in fast-paced environments before realizing what was missing - space to breathe, reflect and connect. She founded Camp Hard Reset to create the kind of transformational experience she wished she'd had: equal parts grounding, playful and life-changing. Her mission is to help people pause long enough to hear what their life is really asking for - and take bold steps towards it.
