22. The Journey from Finance to Media with Simi Shah from Trailblazers

My last guest for this season is Simi Shah, Harvard ‘19, from the media platform Trailblazers! Simi has experience working in both the finance and media industries, so listen to hear more about her time as a South Asian woman with Girls Who Invest and her particular firm post-grad, what it was like to make that leap from finance to media earlier this year, how media fulfills her entrepreneurial spirit, and the amazing platform, Trailblazers, dedicated to trailblazing by and for South Asians, that she recently created!
