In this episode, we'll be connecting with Rejoice Jones the CEO of Vower to learn more about her entrepreneurial journey, her path into Atlanta's tech scene as a black founder, and her thoughts on what the future of the gig economy will entail! We'll also be sure to have our standard set of opportunities for minority students on the very next episode - our apologies for the misstep. Dream Shakerz IGLink: https://www.instagram.com/p/CIw7ZyfBlnD/?igshid=qbo7ku3zd14

Dream Shakerz Weekly Shakedown 3-27-21

Welcome to the Dream Shakerz Podcast, our weekly show that covers technology, venture capital, and professional development from the vantage point of an ex-banker whose since switched to overseeing operations at a startup and a former management consultant whose in the midst of transitioning to graduate school to study human-computer interaction and design. As young black men, we realized that there was a void in regards to content creators who came from impoverished backgrounds but have also found success in professional spaces while staying true to who they are as people. We want to inform you, our audience, that your beginnings should not rule out certain career paths and that professional success doesn't necessarily mean you have to cut off all cultural ties. Given our success in plotting a course from public housing units in the Bronx to programs at Harvard, we believe we can effectively speak to this need.
