About us

Rooted in Ritual. Guided by Science.

Hi! We’re Melissa and Sumit.

We’re the wife-and-husband team behind Wellkasa—a wellness company focused on natural, science-backed support for brain and nerve health. Over the years, we’ve navigated our own challenges with chronic stress, brain fog, fatigue, and burnout.

Melissa, juggling caregiving, leadership, and self-care, was driven to find natural ways to manage migraine-related fatigue, sleeplessness, and brain fog. Sumit, living with a genetic heart condition while managing global businesses and supply chains, searched for evidence-based tools to manage stress and emotional resilience.

After years of developing targeted supplements to support migraine and brain health, we discovered something special in Peak & Valley: a ritual-based wellness brand that aligned beautifully with our mission.

Peak & Valley was created to help people manage the mental demands of modern life—naturally. Originally founded by a Johns Hopkins–trained neuroscientist, the brand was rooted in a deep respect for adaptogens and functional mushrooms as tools to support stress relief, focus, and restorative sleep. With clean ingredients, thoughtful sourcing, and real-world results, it stood out as a brand with soul and science.

In April 2025, we acquired Peak & Valley to bring it under the Wellkasa umbrella—not to change it, but to carry its mission forward. These are products we use ourselves, every day. As a family navigating health challenges while leading purpose-driven ventures, we know the value of daily tools that bring calm, clarity, and balance.

Today, Peak & Valley continues to blend ancient botanical wisdom with modern clinical insight. Our products are designed to support you through life’s natural rhythms—its peaks and its valleys—with:

  • Organic adaptogens and functional mushrooms.
  • No fillers, no junk—just clean, effective ingredients.
  • Formulations backed by both tradition and research.

We’re proud to continue Peak & Valley’s journey—and honored to be part of yours.
