Ian Choe

Since graduating from Harvard in 2012 with a degree in Psychology, I've spent most of my time working on various projects that stem directly from the causes or interests about which I am most passionate. In 2012, I started an international non-profit organization called The ASSIST (African Sports & Scholastic Initiative for Students in Townships) with two of my classmates to address the needs of children in the most disadvantaged townships in Johannesburg, South Africa. In less than a year, we were able to secure valuable partners (DHL, NBA Africa, and more) and annual donors, and set up a local board of working professionals and student leaders from the University of Witwatersrand to run operations on the ground. Currently, I'm one of the founders and the CEO of FourLeaf, a music tech platform that leverages verified data on real life accomplishments to help music creators connect with the assurance of quality and transparency. Our company prides itself on being very in touch with both the macro trends of the market as well as the specific needs of our users, as all of our core team members have extensive experience in the music industry and as music creators. The product is currently in private beta, and will launch to the public at the end of the summer (2015).
