Company Summary

Socoride allows commuters who take frequent, inter-city trips to quickly arrange a ride in real-time and pay what they feel is fair. Currently alternatives to traveling between cities for work are costly, time-consuming and/or unsafe. We create a ridesharing community where drivers and passengers can take single rides or form groups. Socoride increases safety, reduces time and cost of commuting, and provides professional networking opportunities.

    I graduated from UC Berkeley with degrees in Business Administration and Economics. I was an investment banking analyst in the Tech, Media and Telecomm group of Goldman Sachs before going into digital media, where I deal with various media channels and do analysis using SAS and SQL.
