MORE ABOUT BORO’S FOUNDER
WHY I WANTED MY CPA
It represented a core skill base and achievement I would carry with me forever, so that when I was ready to expand I could enter any industry with a base level of competence. The CPA program teaches how to solve any business problem.
WHAT INSPIRED BORO
The idea stemmed from a problem I had, having a lot of clothing but never anything to wear. The habit was already there for friends to share clothing with each other, why not create a community around this.
