  Community and Learning Associate

  My reach within communities ranges from Tech to Entrepreneur communities to Social Impact communities.I'm currently building the Learning Community in the NSSF Hi-Innovator learning Academy where people seeking entrepreneurial skills have access to a range of entrepreneurial courses on the Hi-Innovator learning Academy. Outstanding entrepreneurs and business owners seeking to level up then qualify for the Hi-Innovator program where teams/businesses are given a chance to make it through our skilling boot-camps with thrilling speakers. Selected businesses then get a chance to pitch in front of panels of judges and get a chance to win 20k USD in funding.I am also tasked with sourcing community leads in university and in the community to accelerate the work being done for the businesses through the learning Academy. I also stand as a liaison between Outbox and technical communities seeking to call a place home. Show less
