ActiveLoans to Nigeria's SMEs in under 3 hours
This company has previously operated under “PayHippo”. A rename frequently marks a pivot in positioning or product — useful raw material for variant ideas.

Hi everyone! I'm Zach. My favorite thing in the world is music (been playing guitar for 15 years). I used to be a certified weight loss specialist to pay the bills in undergrad. Started a mobile health app at the end of undergrad. But I also did a lot of activism. I'm most proud of creating this campaign: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/28/opinion/bruni-emilios-great-race.html Then started teaching in Manhattan to learn about impact in education. Down to talk with fellow founders!
Whether I'm building a company, analysing policies or leading a flag-football team in a league, I'm driven to make a difference/learn something. This could be profit, impact or winning the league championship. Happy to chat and connect.
