Sarah Morgenstern

I grew up in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio, and saw first-hand how visionary entrepreneurs–both for-profit and nonprofit–play a pivotal role in revitalizing communities. I’m energized every day by a new generation of leaders committed to using financial technology to improve people’s lives.
