Finally had time this weekend to sit down & begin reviewing for my TEDx Talk coming up in two weeks. I also officially finished my first week with SelfScore this past Friday. Thought it'd be a great time to do a brief reflection of the week so far on my transition from Fortune 500 to the startup space. Earlier this year, instead of coming up with NY's resolutions I developed themes to live by—two of those: embracing risks & creating impact. To this end, I decided to move away from blue chip companies to develop my experience with startups, an area I've been wanting to pursue for awhile (more in a future post). I also wanted to find a startup that is purposeful while also creating a meaningful impact. I ultimately found SelfScore, a fintech startup that's dedicated to helping young people gain access to credit & financial literacy. Pumped to be heading the charge in evangelizing & designing a world class financial literacy program for such a deserving, yet underserved population. Looking forward to all the great work ahead Kalpesh Kapadia Pat Nicholson ! It's incredibly fulfilling when your career is aligned with your values & ability to make a difference. Hoping to explore this topic further in the coming month with a long-form post. More updates on TEDx coming up soon as well! …see more
