OhHello!!!
It's episode 67 and our featured "Hello" (an esteemed mentor on OhHello.io đâď¸), Sonia Nigam, is seriously impressive. Personally, and professionally, she's tackling a lot and making an impact across the board.
From the Bay, to Northwestern University, back to the Bay to join Braintree, and now CEO/co-founder of Change (https://www.linkedin.com/company/change-giving-experiences).
In this episode, we hit on #payingitforward #mentorship #givingback and rolling-up sleeves to GSD.
Sonia pays tribute to her top mentors- daphne carmeli (for being a bad ass) + Reshma Saujani (for bringing down the barriers for women to enter into engineering pipelines at an early age via Girls Who Code), along with humble shout-outs to her entrepreneurial family.
As a young founder, her advice reminds me of the book "Never Eat Alone" -- take yourself outside of your comfort zone, eat w/ new people, and meet with different people ---> it helps you learn and develop add'l empathy.
We're stoked to be partnering with Sonia, Amar Shah, and their team, at getchange.io.
