Welcome to So Money.

Raise your hand if you were a C student in high school. Well, this episode's for you.

Welcome to So Money.

I'm your host, Farnish Terabi. Our guest today is Joanne Bradford, chief marketing officer of SoFi, and she's here talking very openly and honestly about her journey from being a so-so student getting a lot of

seas in high school to ultimately climbing through the ranks of Corporate America, now Chief Marketing Officer at SoFi.

And for those of you who aren't familiar with SoFi, it's an online personal finance company.

It provides people with student loan refinancing, mortgages, and personal loans, and I've actually had the co-founder Dan Macklin on this podcast, episode 261.

Now, Joanne, her role at SoFi is to oversee its consumer facing functions.

That includes marketing, business development, partnerships, member services.

Before SoFi, she was at Pinterest where she led global

commercial and content partnerships. She's also been at Yahoo. She's been at the San Francisco

Chronicle Business Week.

She's also on the board of care,

which provides aid to the poor around the world

and is a founding advisor to lean in.
