How can a YEAA internship help you build the foundational skillsets that can catapult you ahead of the competition?

On today’s show, we interview Brian Rossini, brand manager for Thrasio who shares with us his distilled wisdom on failure, grit, and leadership. 

Back in 2016, Brian ran a $103,000 painting business with YEAA earning a handsome profit of $22,000. For his efforts, he even earned the Manager of the Year award. 

As a student painter, Brian learned some valuable and lifelong lessons in grit and leadership which set him up for bigger and better things. You will also learn the importance of taking ownership and having a strong support system to back you up.

After graduating from UMass in 2018, Brian worked as a Business Development Rep with Hubspot before moving on to Thrasio. In every interview, Brian’s experience as a student painter proved to be the differentiating factor that set him apart in a crowded job market.

Thrasio, an e-commerce start-up and an acquirer of Amazon third-party private-label businesses is the fastest company ever to reach a valuation of $1 billion. In this segment of the show, you get a peek into Thrasio’s unique business model which has fuelled their scorching growth.
