MORE ON DANNY:
Backed with years of professional sales experience working at unique companies and having worked very closely with founders in his startup experiences, Danny set off to build Ramped with his co-founders in 2020. He knew that the modern job search was antiquated and not equitable or merit-based. The group's mission was simple - exploring the struggles of career professionals both in and out of the job search in order to make the job search easier for professionals in all stages of their careers.
