On this episode of Chasers, we got a chance to talk to Nathan Graber-Lipperman. He’s actually born just a few years after the official millennial range cutoff, but he’s working on something that’s really relevant to millennials. Nathan is the founder of Unplugg'd, a venture where his goal is to allow participants to set up meetups known as Unplugs, disconnect from social media, and share good faith dialogue with each other by diving deeper into certain issues or topics they care about.
His entire life, Nathan has always been interested in building and exploring all sorts of new ideas. He started his first business as just a young student in middle school, selling t-shirts and soon after got involved in reselling sneakers.

Episode 19: A Diverse Gaming Experience
On this episode of Chasers podcast, we had a conversation with Nika Nour, executive director of the IGDA Foundation. The IGDA Foundation focuses on improving the lives of game developers by making game development a more diverse and inclusive community.
Nika has an intense passion for gaming; but interestingly, her love for video games didn’t start with developing them. It started, from a very young age, with playing them...until eventually, she stumbled upon the vast world of video game development.
Episode 18: A Conservation Biologist
On this episode, we spoke to Gabi Fleury, a conservation biologist. It’s a field that not many people know about...in fact, Ryan and I hadn’t even heard about it before this interview!
What’s most unique about Gabi’s story, however, is that they knew they wanted to work with wildlife, especially in Africa, since their early childhood.
Episode 17: A Culinary Experience
On this episode of Chasers, we sat down with Jackie Shao, a culinary student. Her story is particularly interesting because she pivoted paths several times, from being a mechanical engineer to a project manager at Microsoft, to finally landing what she thought was her dream position - a program manager at Apple - before deciding her true dream was to pursue a career in the culinary industry.
Her journey truly shows us that it’s never impossible or too late to chase a passion. For her, in fact, it all started with a simple love for figure skating and physics.
Episode 16: Clothes design, aesthetics and natural beauty
For this episode of Chasers, we interviewed Matt Yang. He’s a fashion designer, who decided he wanted to commit himself to fashion school and a serious career in the industry after he had essentially finished an entire Bachelor’s degree at NYU.
Matt’s curiosity toward fashion, however, began much earlier. It followed him all the way up to his adult life...until he could ignore it no more.
Episode 15: Serenade the socks off
In this episode of Chasers, we got a chance to sit down with Michael Pace, a country musician known for his high energy act that captures the rugged blue-collar act of traditional country while maintaining the atmosphere and lore of modern country. What's interesting about his story is that he grew up in suburban Massachusetts and spent his entire life cooking and everything that's not singing.
