Podcast & Conversations [coming soon]
Learning Out Loud
I enjoy conversations about leadership, focus, learning, and starting early.
Through podcasts and discussions, I share what I'm learning as a student founder and learn from others who are building meaningful things in their own communities.
Learning Out Loud
This is about learning out loud, not pretending to have it all figured out.
Through conversations, I share my journey as a student founder, discuss what I'm learning, and connect with others who are building meaningful things. It's a space for authentic dialogue about leadership, focus, and starting early.
What We Discuss
