Ken's story started in China before he immigrated as a little boy that grew up in Las Vegas. Like many new immigrants, his parents hustled and worked multiple jobs at casinos and restaurants to make ends meet. Ken was entrepreneurial at an early age and started selling greeting cards as a kid. He would go on to college at Boston University, where he now sits on the Board of Trustees. After graduating he had a full-time job, while also selling computer parts out of his apartment. He would go on to open a few Internet cafes in Cambridge. It was clear that he was inspired by his parents resourcefulness and hustle.

He would go on to found Credit Karma in 2007 to bring transparency to an opaque industry of consumer credit reporting. 13 years later he would sell the company to Intuit for $8.1 billion and now serves over 130 million customers.

Ken's is a story of a decades long overnight success, driven by his passion and resilience. He shares about how even he struggled with imposter syndrome, even though he was wildly successful in the world's eyes. I can't wait to share our conversation with you all.
