CBV Alumni Board Feature: Tina Tran Neville + Lana Learn
2020-21 CBV Alumni Board Feature: Tina Tran Neville of Lana Learn
What propelled you into the entrepreneurial space? And what do you enjoy most about being a founder?
I love the process of innovation. I enjoy thinking of and working on more effective ways of doing things. For education, that means for the benefit of students, families, schools, and organizations.
Tell me about an experience you had as an entrepreneur or in starting your company that exemplified one of Camelback's core values.
As an entrepreneur, you are told "no" 90% of the time. You are your own and your company's own best advocate. You have to possess a ruthless "belief in our mission and vision" to build a team, grow a company, fundraise to support an idea, and work with customers through the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey. That all begins with an unshakeable belief in the mission and vision.
Is there anyone from the #camelbackfam you'd like to shout-out?
Aaron Walker. I was part of the first Camelback Ventures cohort. To see where Camelback Ventures was in 2015 and where it is now is nothing short of the belief in Aaron and the Camelback Ventures' team mission and vision.
How are you and/or your team adapting to the challenges of the coronavirus crisis? What are you most proud of overcoming in recent months?
The Coronavirus accelerated Lana Learn's online platform adoption. As a result, we are focusing on technology advancement for scale during this period. I am proud of our team's ability to pay close attention to what customers want and need for online learning for the short-term and long-term. The tech tools of today will not be the tech tools of the future. So much work to do, and Lana Learn is excited to be part of advancing online learning.
