Mission
We are looking to provide underserved high school kids with the personal and professional
clarity needed to effectively kick start their careers. We acknowledge that a fragile
socioeconomic status reduces one’s capacity to make mistakes and escalates the difficulty
of pursuing one’s goals. By optimizing our student’s discovery process, we aim to
strengthen their sense of self, and the confidence that accompanies it.
