Thoroughly enjoyed this podcast on special district public finance and the challenges around intergovernmental policy/relations and transparency. #verticalgovernmentalstacking #publicfinance #publicmoneypod

Opportunity. Today is the last day to apply for the next cohort! In the words of my great grandmother Josephine Little Hurst, “don’t tarry too long in doubt, you got to move”. There are many meaningful things I learned as a member of #cohortVI with BLCK VC institute. One that replays in my head consistently is that ‘if I have the fundamentals in place I can make my vision a reality.’ #BVI gives you the fundamentals of #venturecapital and a network of brilliant professionals to help you execute.

We’re incredibly thankful for all the glowing 5-star reviews we’ve received! Your kind words and support mean so much to us. We’re excited to continue serving you and exceeding your expectations! 🙌💫 #ClientLove #Testimonials #Grateful #HappyClients #OurJourney #CommunityFirst #SmallBusinessOwner #SmallBusinessUK #BusinessFinance #BusinessTaxes #HMRC #LinkedinForBusiness

For my colleagues attending the PNCWA conference in Boise, Idaho, come see our presentation suite! On Wednesday at 8:30 am, I'll present advances in PFAS water treatment that are beginning to see promise for a total PFAS solution with co-authors Charles Schaefer, Zoom Nguyen, Peter Murphy, and Christopher Higgins. Our latest research highlights a comprehensive treatment train at the pilot scale, featuring membrane filtration to remove PFAS, surface active foam fractionation (SAFF™) to concentrate PFAS from the membrane reject stream, and innovative destructive technologies like plasma, electrochemical oxidation (ECO), and HALT™ for the complete breakdown of PFAS. These advancements aim to reduce the environmental impact of PFAS and our research is showing promise for viable destructive solutions with potential for large-scale water treatment applications. #PFAS, #watertreatment, #nanofiltration, #membranefiltration, #SAFF™, #destructivetechnologies, #completesolutions

I’m happy to be rejoining the TSCPA. I’ve been incredibly focused on information systems, cybersecurity, process analysis, data analytics, and AI, but I will always be grateful for my ability to convey these important topics in the language of business. Having a CPA makes communicating with management a breeze. I love reframing these topics as value drivers rather than cost centers. #tscpa #cpa #ciso #vciso

Entrepreneurship is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, but I believe it's important to stop and honor the milestones. Edstruments is celebrating its (legal) 5th birthday today, though the idea was sparked in early 2017 during my last year at Stanford. Here are five personal reflections on the journey so far as we cross five years 👇 1. 💫 It took many people to get us here, including team members, investors, advisors, and supporters...including many who I have never even met in person. The earliest Edstruments partners who took a bet on us in 2020 (right before the world turned upside down) gave us some validation that we were building something of value and helped us persist through a rough first pandemic year. The partners who've joined us in 2021 and beyond continue to reaffirm that there is a real need for what we're building. 2. 👬 Having the right co-founder is powerful. When Ashwin Gopi Krishna first started working with me in August 2019, it was supposed to be as a temporary ("a few months") favor as he was figuring out next steps. Today, Edstruments wouldn't exist without his technical expertise and steady product leadership. His skillset is completely different from mine, and our shared commitment to the mission and vision of what we do makes us a great team. 3. 💪 Resilience, perseverance, and optimism are perhaps the most important characteristics to develop as an entrepreneur. I have never faced so much rejection in my life prior to this work...whether from a prospective partner, investor, or job candidate, I have been told "no" hundreds of times in the last five years. Staying optimistic and believing in the best days being ahead have kept us going even on the hardest days. By the way....some of those individuals who told us "no" before are now some of our best and most active current partners. 4. ⛰ Staying grounded in what matters most has prevented entrepreneurship from becoming all-consuming. When I started Edstruments, I made a commitment to do it with balance, including prioritizing my marriage with Kelly, physical/mental health, and personal relationships. I became a father one year in, and had a second child three years later, both whom I try to spend quality time with every day. I have times where I commit to "switching off" from work, and for the last year I've met with a therapist monthly. I continue to nurture my faith and spiritual community. Perhaps all of this means we move more slowly than if I was working 80-hour weeks and every weekend...but it allows the role to feel sustainable rather than burn-out inducing. 5. ⏳ Building something great takes time...much more than I expected. It's tempting to read articles about startups that exploded from "day one" and believe this is what success is supposed to look like. More commonly, certainly for us, it's a steady grind with various inflection points. We're hitting one of those now, and I'm excited for what the years ahead hold. Gratitude to all, Aditya
