We built most of Lavender during this. I'm based in New York but we got our start in Atlanta. 🎨 🏛 I've been designing software since I was a kid, but went to school to study Government and Economics. 🌍 I'm passionate about entrepreneurship. I wrote my senior thesis on using micro-finance to encourage entrepreneurship and bottoms-up development of emerging economies. 🦊 I'm most proud of starting a series of campaigns to help save a historic women's college, Sweet Briar, from closing. 👩‍🎓The school was saved by its alumnae, and this experience led me to leave my job and start my first startup: an alumni social chat and mobile fundraising app. 🧠 Through that I was introduced to the cognitive sciences, met my co-founders, and pivoted. We built technology for marketers that leveraged personality and decision making science. 💜 COVID happened and we pivoted again, applying our communication psychology research to sales. 🙌 Now Lavender helps thousands of sales people around the world write better emails faster. 👉 Learn more about Lavender at www.lavender.ai Twitter: @mballance | Insta: @wmb1
