It’s not everyday you get the opportunity to visit your alma mater and share your experiences of starting a business. This past week, Kavet from Lightsleepers and myself got the opportunity to speak to the Business Entrepreneur class at Kamehameha Schools. Kamehameha provided me a lot while I was in school and also financial aid to further my education after I graduated. It was great to give back and share my information of being one of the founders of Contrast. To be honest though, I do feel weird giving advice when I could use so much myself. It was an awesome experience and I can’t wait to do it again next semester. The students were very well-behaved, they gave me a beautiful lei and asked some great questions (ie. “how much was initial investment? when do you expect to see a profit? why haven’t you interviewed J.U.S.T.I.C.E yet?”).
Here’s Kavet explaining the differences between good networking and lurking/creeping. Students thought it was funny. “Don’t be a creeper!” -Kavet
Here I’m explaining how to go deep into debt without worrying about it cause you love printing a magazine in the slowly dying print media industry.
Thanks to the class and to Kavet for including me!
