Founder and CEO, ResumeATM

“Participating in ColaStarts has ABSOLUTELY set me up for success. Learning how to pitch, being connected to the community, and having access to mentors helped me to not only launch my startup with paid customers, but it also helped me land speaking engagements and acceptance into a business accelerator program where I received $25,000 in non-dilutive funds. I have gained so much because of starting with ColaStarts, and I'm thrilled to be connected to the tech community in Columbia, SC.”
