My Pathless Path

The default career path – the one that most of us have been following since the industrial age where people were trained to work at factories – doesn’t lead us to any sense of fulfilment and purpose. As our economy changes, so too must our career narrative.

I’m on a journey to identify my career narrative and build a personal career moat. A career moat is a set of unique levers and competitive advantages that support you in your career growth.

This journey has led me to launch a series of products and projects to help me figure out who I am, find work that matters to me, and do it with purpose.

I've launched a community app, developed a virtual career accelerator, launched an ecommerce coffee company, ventured into a 3D printed chocolate business, and even worked on a few projects in government and university institutions.

Most of my entrepreneurial endeavors didn’t survive past their first year, but some did 👇🏽

My first success: Numo 🍃

Numo is one of the world's first legal cannabis companies. It's a far cry from what my parents wanted me to do, but I hired and led a team of 25+ in an industry that never existed before - while still in my early 20s.

I'd take that over sitting in a cubicle any day.

My second success: Workit 🐬

The monumental shifts in 2020 made me realize it was time to shift gears.

The disruptions cause by the Coronavirus pandemic unveiled that the state of our education system is bleak and that career development as we know it is broken.

I started working on a company called Workit to address this problem.

Workit is a career acceleration community for tech talent who are ready to take the next step in their careers. Workit connect its members with world-class peers, mentors, coaches, and community. Together, Workit members learn and share what can’t be taught via traditional means and unlock opportunities that don’t live on job boards.

My experiences working in startup land and corporate land helped me understand that my career narrative is to unlock human potential by working at the intersection of product, growth, EdTech, and community building. To me, unlocking human potential is the act of helping individuals live in alignment with their highest self by finding fulfilment in both their life and work.

Moving forward, my goal is to work in product, growth, and community for startups that are aligned with my mission to unlock human potential.
