Today's guest is Rohan Shah, the CEO of the startup Classavo.  I met Rohan while applying to be a UI/UX design intern for his company, and while I wasn't able to accept the offer, we still kept in contact and became friends. Now I'm sure you're wondering what Classavo is, and if I could describe it with just a sentence, it would be this.  Classavo is a software, first and foremost, and a way for professors to track how and why their students are performing the way they are in the classroom by measuring different analytics such as what pages the student read, assignment completion, and other tools as well.  And then for students, it's a way to save thousands of dollars a year by providing all the resources one needs for a class (more than just textbooks) right within the Classavo software.  I really hope I didn't butcher that explanation and it was also longer than one sentence, but just wait until you hear what Rohan has to say about the company in the podcast and he will clear things up.  In this podcast we talk about many different aspects to the company, such as how they generate revenue, how they overcome failure, and the 4 most important guidelines the Classavo culture follows.  And then per usual we talk a bit about personal development, like useful books, journaling, and why people are so afraid to pursue an entrepreneurial lifestyle. Enjoy.
