Rashmi Sinha, CEO of presentation sharing website SlideShare, has been ranked 7th in USA's 10 sexiest CEOs. She is the lone Indian on the list.

This news is expected to garner attention from the Indian tech community in US. Sinha is the founder and CEO of SlideShare and lives in San Fransisco. She has a Phd from Brown University and loves working with start ups.
