Chander Rellan Jr., JD
Founder | President

Chander is an entrepreneur who brings over 15 years of expertise in business operations, marketing and business development. He started Asha Enterprises, Inc on the principles of honesty, hard work and giving back.

Chander’s career began in IT. With much research and thought, he ventured off to running his own business in 2005, starting in the hospitality industry, specifically owning and operating a hotel. He accepted the challenges with open arms and started his journey into the wonderful world of hospitality. Utilizing his extensive troubleshooting/problem-solving skills, he brainstormed an idea for a software ideal for property management that would improve the bottom line and promote effective communication amongst staff.

With his vast knowledge and first-hand experience with the ups and downs of business, he brings a dynamic go-to attitude to the table to tackle any task at hand; from setting up and building a business structure, managing staff/operations, developing marketing strategies, to growing the business, and nurturing lasting business relationships.

While Chander continues to work with clients in the capacity of marketing and business development, he is tapping into the fashion industry to follow one of his passions. He is currently working on developing an accessories line, customization of sneakers, and a made-to-measure clothing company.

Chander holds a B.S. degree in Computer Science, minor in Economics (George Mason University), as well as a Paralegal Certification (George Mason University) and a Digital Marketing Certification (Georgetown University). He has completed Fashion Essentials Certification from Parsons School of Fashion. He has received his Juris Doctrate (Executive Track) with honors manga cum laude from Taft Law School.
