Reshini Premaratne

Principal in Residence

Bio


Reshini Premaratne is a Principal in Residence at MVP Ventures and a first-year MBA student at Stanford GSB. At MVP, she’s building her thesis on the future of energy infrastructure, focused on the technologies that expand how much power the grid can carry, from utility-scale storage to the compute driving new demand. At Stanford, she spends her time exploring what’s next in energy technology, meeting founders, and learning to play tennis.

Reshini has spent her career where policy, startups, and the power sector meet. She started in campaigns and government, including at the U.S. Treasury, where she helped deliver pandemic relief to small businesses and families. From there, she advised utility and energy clients at BCG, spent a year embedded at National Grid, and most recently worked on the product and commercial team at Heron Power, a solid-state transformer startup.

A Sri Lankan-American who grew up in Richmond, Virginia, Reshini started figure skating at four and was a national champion by 15. These days, you’ll find her dancing, logging miles as a distance runner, or cheering on Philly sports.
