In this short, we spotlight Team Key Beauty, a TYE Global finalist team building an AI-powered makeup matching platform for women of color—and sharing what they loved most about the TiE Young Entrepreneurs (TYE) program. Ashrita and Tarini talk about coming into TYE nervous about public speaking (or not even knowing what entrepreneurship was!) and leaving with real startup experience, a live product, a global pitch under their belt, and a whole new level of confidence. For them, TYE wasn’t just a class—it was where a personal pain point turned into a real company.

Key Beauty helps women of color find the right makeup shades through AI shade-matching, tutorials tailored to skin tone, and a marketplace that highlights small and boutique beauty brands. Guided by mentor **Ramya Grama**—a tech leader, entrepreneur, and Amazon program manager—the team used TYE to learn pitching, customer discovery, business models, and leadership skills that now show up in everything from DECA to future career choices. Their story is a powerful example of how TYE helps teens find their voice, their confidence, and their startup mindset.
