Madavi Oliver

Founder
Madavi Oliver is the creator and designer of Mayil Scarves, a clothing accessory venture that started out as a hobby and turned into a business with a social impact added value. An active member of the North South Foundation (NSF) for over 13 years, she volunteers for the MA chapters contests and is the India scholarships coordinator in the U.S. for NSF. Her passion for the environment led her to join the recently formed sustainability committee in Littleton, Massachusetts. She is also part of Plastic Bag Busters – a group formed to encourage people to say ‘no’ to plastic bags through the hundred bag challenge. Her career in the U.S. began with two Masters degrees in Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering, followed by many years of Research at Harvard School of Public Health. It was during a year’s sabbatical in 2009 that she discovered her fascination for fabric and her ancestry of silk weaving and decided to take a plunge into the enthralling world of colors and textures, waving goodbye to Engineering and laying the foundation for Mayil Scarves.
