Failing Forward: Nadia Genevieve Masri, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Perksy

As one of Forbes 30 Under 30, Nadia Masri is a serial entrepreneur who started her first company at the age of 17. As a child, she wanted to be an actress, a career that may seem radically different from what she is doing right now. However, Masri stresses that being a founder is not too different after all; founders wear many hats in the company. On some days, duties require a founder to lean into law and the next day accountant, similar to taking on different acting roles.

With anyone’s great success comes failure, which is analogous to life! Masri touches on her own failures throughout her career and how one can learn to overcome those failures by failing upwards.
