Danny Iny is the founder and CEO of Mirasee and best-selling author of nine published books, including his newest book: Leveraged Learning. He is the host of the Business Reimagined Podcast and is also the creator of the acclaimed Course Builder’s Laboratory training program, which provides all the instruction, coaching, and support that entrepreneurs need to build and launch a profitable online course.  All of this grew out of humble beginnings; Danny dropped out of high school at age 15 because he was bored. And while he made several wrong turns, he’s fond of saying that failure isn’t the end of the story—it’s a “plot twist.”  Back in 2011, Danny started Firepole Marketing with less than nothing; he had no traffic, no subscribers, no relationships with any influencers in the industry, and over a quarter million dollars in personal debt, left over from his last failed startup.    In just a few short years, he transformed Firepole Marketing into Mirasee and grew the business to multiple-seven figures in revenue.

Lauren Ober is a podcast host with American Public Media (APR) on a show under production at this time.  She formerly hosted the NPR show “The Big Listen,” a “broadcast about podcasts,” where she got to observe and report on the podcast industry budding before her own eyes. But before Lauren found her passion for radio, she worked as a newspaper reporter until a career hiccup prompted her to take an audio storytelling workshop with Transom that changed her career forever.  Lauren describes her career path as “winding,” and Washington D.C. has been a major landmark for her: she got her undergrad at American University in Justice and Public Affairs. After getting her MA in Journalism at Syracuse University, she later returned to the city to freelance and work for NPR member radio station, WAMU. Since then, Lauren has racked up three years of hosting with “The Big Listen,” a nationally distributed NPR show that ended in May of 2018. She is now starting work on a new (not yet announced) show for American Public Media that will air in May of 2019.

Scott Lowell is an actor who has plied his trade both onstage and onscreen. After graduating from Connecticut College in 1987 with a BA in Theater, Scott moved to Chicago to begin his career onstage in various productions. Despite being a self-proclaimed ‘theater snob’, Scott’s acting chops eventually led him to various roles on the big screen, playing characters such as Dr. Douglas Filmore in the hit procedural drama Bones.

Since starring in the series, Scott has since made a return to theater, performing in various roles in the Broadway revival of The Elephant Man in 2014.
