Hi Jimmy,
Keep up the good work.
Hi Jimmy,
You probably don’t remember me, but we met a few years ago when you came to speak at the Harvard Club of San Francisco. I’m the now the founder of an education technology startup called Mindblown Labs. We use mobile gaming to teach teens and high school students about personal finance. If you can make some time, I’d be very interested in getting your feedback on our venture.
