Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E3: Stephany LaPierre, Tealbook

Stephany LaPierre is originally from Quebec, so English is her second language. She was a ski instructor in Whistler, and followed up going to university studying English. She grew up with an inspirational grandmother, who was a forced entrepreneur, involved in the community, and a fantastic mother and family member. Her Mom has a similar story, and Stephany pulls a lot of influence from both of these ladies. From many years ago, she has been starting and running businesses.

While progressing through her career, Stephany had an idea around enhanced supplier data that she couldn't shake. After a small maternal break to have her 3rd daughter, she stepped back into the startup ring to build a tool around dynamic supplier data.

This is the creation story of Tealbook.
