Come for the mission and stay for the community. This is the type of company culture that I aim to create as an entrepreneur and I have the [Xfund Ethics] fellows to thank for the building blocks of a principled entrepreneurship foundation.

[Xfund Ethics] fellows envisions a future entrepreneurial ecosystem at Stanford that is as ethical, as it is inclusive. It dares to imagine a Silicon Valley with leaders whose success is as lauded as its principles. I’m proud to consider myself a part of this movement.

A lot of students graduating from college end up working at companies where their core values don’t align with the company’s set of principles. The [Xfund Ethics] Fellows program helped me formulate my own set of morals to go by in all the work I do, and now I strive to consider the ethics and social impact of my decisions in my daily life.

The [Xfund Ethics] fellowship has brought value to my life beyond entrepreneurship. I developed a framework that consistently informs and benefits my individual interactions and evaluations of the world at large. I have been motivated to pursue a mission that enhances the global community because I feel confident in the preparation that [Xfund Ethics Fellows] provided. I look forward to continuing to grow and pursue that mission with the community I found at [Xfund Ethics Fellows].
