President & Founder
I lead a company that produces events and virtual content related to doing some good in the world.
We're a small company of six employees and I essentially run the business. I manage our employees, book the locations for our events, and create content through interviewing people and writing them up.
Here's the first step for college students
I would not suggest starting your own business right out of college unless you really had a lot of insight and experience in a certain area that would give you a leg up. Instead, I recommend looking for learning opportunities through work that will ultimately be able to contribute to you later creating your own business. It's important to have an eye for realizing your marketable skills that can help you transition through your career.
