Episode 7- Cynthia Ahr: Former Oregon State Forward now CEO/Founder of Likeli Athletes & Assets

Cynthia Ahr is a pioneer in many regards. After a basketball career playing with and against the likes of Cheryl Miller and Cynthia Cooper, Cynthia Ahr introduced AAU basketball to Northern California in the 90s. The tenacity, leadership, and determination Cynthia developed playing the game now influences the way she runs her fast growing app Likeli. Likeli is a scheduling platform that checks availability for everyone involved and makes super smart suggestions so you don't have to guess. It literally provides availability as a service. A and A is ecstatic to be the first podcast Cynthia has appeared on: Because if you have not heard of Likeli by now, you will probably need to download it in the near future.

This episode is brought to you by friends at Afternoon Audit, the hottest new newsletter that provides highly unique insights via a 90 second combination of key news headlines, stock picks and tech trends.
