Audrey Wisch
Audrey is taking time off from Stanford University to pursue Curious Cardinals, chasing her dreams to not only help K-12 students discover and pursue their passions, but also to provide college students with a platform to share their passions. After teaching her first workshop on mass incarceration to high school students at the start of the pandemic, Audrey mobilized her most ambitious peers at Stanford and beyond to share topics they were passionate about to K-12 students. Since then, Audrey has spoken on CNN and in Forbes to share her vision to create a community of lifelong learners and doers. Curious Cardinals has now raised $6.8 million in seed funding led by Anthos Capital and Audacious Ventures. She was recognized in the 2022 Forbes 30 Under 30 Education and Youngest category. At Stanford, Audrey was a history major whose research on the history of sexual assault narratives was published in the Stanford Historical Journal. When Audrey is not working or speaking to Curious Cardinals students, mentors, or parents, she can be found running while listening to podcasts, reading, or visiting art museums!
