I’m Phaedra Ellis-Lamkins, CEO and co-founder of Promise, a startup working on decarceration by providing a more humane and cost-effective alternative to incarceration. Before founding Promise I was Head of Care at Honor and the CEO of anti-poverty organization Green For All. Before that I was also Prince’s manager. Ask me anything about building a company, government technology, fundraising, the music industry, or something else!
