The myth says building a company is a deeply lonely pursuit. True for most, I think. But launching and growing Shur has been a very different experience for my team and me. An awesome community – companies, investors, and men and women from around the country – are consistently stepping up to support our vision. Together, we are on a trajectory to create something that has the potential to enhance the financial dreams of millions of professionals navigating student loans and wealth creation. At the top of the list are our friends at Northwestern Mutual. They invested early, inviting Shur to join the NM Black Founders Accelerator®. Together with the amazing team at gener8tor – their support is helping us build something extraordinary. Thanks, Northwestern Mutual: John Schlifske, Abim Kolawole, Moiz Dawoodbhai, Craig Schedler, Grady Crosby, and Antonio Santillo. And gener8tor: Precious P. Drew, Mfoniso Ekong, Destiney D. Mohammed, Maggie Brickerman. Also, look for NM profiles of the amazing Jannae Gammage and Matthew Parker! In 2024, expect more as the Shur team deepens our partnerships with companies, membership organizations, and cities to bring financial wellness to millions of professionals with student debt. https://lnkd.in/e_hR8ZbM

🎰 So exciting to spend last week at InsureTech Connect in #Vegas. We brought the Shur message to investors, carriers, other startups, and the entire insurance innovation community. And there is traction for our idea of creating a financial and wealth pathway for student loan borrowers. (#ITC) 🎤 I got to hit the stage for the ITC Vegas Startup Pitch Competition, presented by Statefarm Insurance. The questions were sharp and focused – as were other presenters carving out amazing innovations. Congratulations to our friends at SnapRefund (Cody Eddings & Anis Taylor) for the win! Our Chief Revenue Officer, Aurelia Crews, and I give huge thanks to the teams at Northwestern Mutual, the NMBFA, and gener8tor for opening these doors for us (NM: Abim Kolawole, Moiz Dawoodbhai, Craig Schedler, Grady Crosby, Antonio Santillo. gener8tor: Precious P. Drew, Mfoniso Ekong, Destiney D. Mohammed) 🦾 Back at our desks and focused on a successful year-end close! #itc #studentloanborrowers #wealthcreation
