Today’s guest is Audrey Wisch, a Gen Z founder who is a great example of why I have so much confidence that the world will be in great hands with this generation. She is the CEO of Curious Cardinals, an education tech company that matches students K-12 with college mentors and tutors.. Audrey started Curious Cardinals as a pandemic passion project while still a student at Stanford. Since then, she’s scaled it into a fast-growing business with a global footprint, and a network of over 700 college mentors helping thousands of K–12 students discover their passions.
In our conversation, Audrey shares how she learned to lead while building a company from scratch, the growing pains that come with scaling fast, and what it means to embrace authenticity when you don’t look like the typical Silicon Valley founder. We also talk about her vision of democratizing mentorship and building a company rooted in both purpose and bold ambition.
