Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Kirsten Bronkovic, co-founder of EmpathED.Kirsten grew up in Newtown, Pennsylvania, and shared how she was kind of enterprising even as a young kid where she even held an art sale. Her entrepreneurial spirit was evident even at a young age. Later, she enrolled in a program at the University of Pittsburgh that took her around the world via ship, landing in different countries. This life-changing experience led her to co-establish EmpathED.Fast forward to today, EmpathED is a web-based platform that offers interactive and accessible online courses on various topics related to learning disabilities, neurodiversity, disability, and mental health. It uses different media formats, virtual reality, and empathy to help learners understand the challenges and opportunities of inclusive and accessible education and work environments.Let's discover more of Kirsten's full-packed story in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:EmpathEDhttp://www.empatheducate.com/Kirsten Bronkovic's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kirsten-bronkovic-5407578b/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/
