Connecting Two Passions for Disruptive Innovation
519 Michelle McCormack: Fashion Tech
When to Pivot, and Why Timing Matters in a Startup
Many of us have seemingly unconnected passions and may be tempted to choose one over another, yet that can be a false choice because many of the most innovative startups fuse the seemingly unconnected for disruptive innovation.
So what does it take to live into all your passions and connect them to live your dreams and prosper?
Michelle McCormack combined a love of fashion with a passion for technology and a talent for building community as the Founder and CEO of Casting Coin, a platform transforming the fashion and entertainment industries.
A former fashion photographer who has worked with the most iconic brands in the world, Michelle taught herself to code so she could solve problems she witnessed first-hand in the fashion industry including lack of opportunity, unfair payment practices, and production inefficiencies. Today Michelle shares her entrepreneurial journey and what she’s learned along the way.
