🎙️ In Episode 9 of the SCLA CEO Unscripted Speaker Series, we sit down with Karim Abouelnaga, Founder and CEO of Practice, an education company dedicated to closing the opportunity gap for low-income students through high-dosage tutoring, responsive curricula, and technology.
A first-generation American and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, Karim founded Practice from his Cornell dorm room at just 18 years old and has since helped nearly 200,000 students nationwide.
In this episode, Karim shares insights on:
Why true success isn’t about money — it’s about purpose
How fear, risk-taking, and asking for help shaped his journey
Turning down Wall Street offers to build a mission-driven company
Lessons in resilience, gratitude, and leadership from his early career
How AI is reshaping opportunity for today’s students
This conversation is packed with inspiration for students and young professionals seeking meaning, impact, and courage in their careers.
