Raised initial funding, designed and led operations.

Tokobox was a social commerce platform that used social media to allow rural Indonesians to build their own business by selling dropshipped items to their friends, family, and neighbors.

Responsibilities included managing daily operations across >1,000 registered sellers, building an awesome team, and exciting investors about our prospects.
