Hi, I’m Tiffany!
The ‘TL;DR’
I’m a social entrepreneur, author, TEDx speaker, and community-builder, who is passionate about empowering people with the needed resources and inspiration to make a positive impact on others, their community, and the world.
I’m a dual-degree graduate of the University of Pennsylvania (B.A., M.S. Sociology & Nonprofit Leadership). During my time in grad school, I founded Fulphil, an education nonprofit that empowers youth to build compassion to make a positive impact and excel in their future careers by creating fun and engaging classroom education content. As recognized in Forbes and my TED talk, Fulphil has inspired thousands of students across the country to lead lives of impact. After several rounds of iteration, our curriculum has been transformed into books that will be fully published by 2024. Build With Impact was published in April 2023 and has been recognized as one of the top best-sellers on Amazon in the green business and also startup/entrepreneurship genres.
I’ve also co-founded Project Shields, an emergency COVID-response initiative that has mass-produced over 150,000 face shields for front-line workers and vulnerable populations during the initial onset of the pandemic.
I am also a budding investor. I co-founded a We Are Gen Z VC, which cultivates and funds the next generation of changemakers and entrepreneurs. Formerly, I have also worked at Red & Blue Ventures, through my fellowship with Venture for America Fellow, an organization founded by 2020 Democratic Candidate Andrew Yang.
These experiences have been pivotal in building my passion for making an effective positive social impact within and across organizations and also studying more about organizational dynamics.
Above all, I’m always looking for ways to support fellow peers, community members, and youth in their journeys!
