our story —

why shosay exists.

A free tool to collect, manage, and share the work people are already saying about you.

a note —

I'm really big on helping people who are just getting started in their career. In 2008, I was the 10th employee at Eventbrite, where I first got inspired to help small businesses. Then I went on to be the founding engineer at Reforge, where I fell in love with helping people learn from those who had already accomplished success.

With those lessons, I founded Casting Call Club, a platform for aspiring creators to collaborate, which has grown to 3M people. From there, I created a school, Closing Credits, to help those creators level up their skills.

Shosay spawned from the idea to share the work those creators have done. I believe sharing one's work — imperfect or otherwise — is beautiful, and necessary for the world today to feel connected, supported, and alive.
