I'm investing because Nadia is one of the most coachable, resourceful, passionate, intentional and thorough people I have met. She is solving a problem that she is intimately familiar with - helping deaf/hard of hearing children learn math using American Sign Language (ASL). I have walked through her financials based on what she has done with her own money and time (part time!) and am convinced that she has de-risked the the business with the traction she has already achieved. She is businesslike and professional like no other schoolteacher I have ever met and has a penchant for perfection. She is amazing. That's just her. The business is simple, straightforward and impactful. With hundreds of topics and thousands of questions that she has already created, along with the testimonials she has received, I am anxious to see what this funding and her full time effort - including more than the zero dollars she has spent on marketing - will do. I love her revenue sharing loan strategy. This is not a company that lends itself to an equity investment so I think the probability of success is higher than most startups I invest in. One more thing, she has an extraordinary family that has and will support her with legal, operational and accounting assistance. In short, the campfire here is built, the wood is dry and this funding is the match to get this business started.
