Before creating a startup to help NFT projects optimize their revenue Tara Fung almost joined the CIA, attended Harvard Business School and is now happily a part of the Nashville tech scene.

Tara Fung always had a curiosity about the world that led her to want to understand finance and economics. While an early job at the automaker Daimler wasn't exciting enough, she did pass the background check to join the CIA, though she didn't join the agency. She finished off her application the the Harvard Business School with her bridesmaids gathered around her on her wedding day and soon discovered the world of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. She co-founded Co:Create earlier this year to help non-fungible token (NFT) projects create sustainable revenue models. We talk about her upbringing in the South, how living in New York City isn't for everyone and the tech scene in Nashville, Tennessee.
