Empower youth to choose and pursue their ideal careers through networking.
We envision the Future of Work where students feel like every industry is accessible to them. Even if students hold identities that have been historically underrepresented (such as race, gender, orientation and more), they can build a network of professionals who share those identities and successfully close the gaps we see in the workforce today.
Employees who are involved in mentoring programs have a 50% higher retention rate, and young adults with a mentor are 130% more likely to hold leadership positions.
The app is motivational, especially the advice. I found something I'm interested in and I'm like ... this could be me.
I already graduated with a Poli Sci degree but...do you know what I can do with that?
This app made me feel like I was actually getting first-hand tips and tricks from professionals.
The most important thing about this app is contact information so you can network and talk to professionals.
Students: describe your strengths Mentors: describe your job & journey
Students: search careers and advice easier than ever before Mentors: see your impact data
Students: ask your questions Mentors: share your experiences
Students become more likely to pursue and succeed while mentors feel like they're giving back

Empowering high school students to choose and pursue ideal careers through networking.
At 17, I committed myself and my family to $120,000 in college debt to pursue an undeclared major. I had no idea what careers existed beyond doctor, teacher, lawyer and CSI agent, so people advised me to "figure it out in college." Not everyone can afford to do that.
For the last decade, I've worked in K12 schools that push every student to college without mandatory career exploration or work-based learning opportunities. We pipeline students to higher ed banking on the idea they'll "figure it out" later. This is just part of the reason Americans have $1.75 Trillion in higher education debt and a 40% average dropout rate.
We have the technology and connectivity to help our students discover their career potential before this pivotal point, so why not provide it to all students? In a completely new way?
Let's change the system, together.
