Two goals for Upstart in 2024 were to return to growth mode while making rapid progress back to profitability. We accomplished both. This simple mantra “best rates and best process for all" - executed with a ferocity unknown to man - has the potential to turn Upstart into the ultimate destination for credit and one of the most impactful Fintechs in the world. We will always remember 2024 as the year this journey began. https://lnkd.in/g_8xpwHp

Sharing a few highlights from this year's Upstart Live conference in San Diego, CA. It took a real village to get this one across the line and it was even better than I expected. So so proud of how this turned out. A huge kudos to the incredible branding work ( genius Erin Rose Opperman and her incredible team), the operational excellence from Kellyn Wieland & Salt, and an extra special thank you to my army of volunteers who hand taped almost 1000 special gifts under the chairs before my keynote... Want to join us at Live 2026? We're hiring! Check out roles at Upstart.com/careers
When Upstarters come together, the future of credit takes shape. That’s why we called this year’s company gathering “Game Changers.” It was two days of big ideas, breakthrough moments, and bold calls to action - and we couldn’t be more excited about 2025.

I've completed Upstart's AI Certification which I learned about through the Leaders in Lending Podcast. It's free for a limited time and is a fantastic intro to the applications and risks of AI! #AI #Fintech #Continuingeducation
