Howard Chung talks about his life as a main street entrepreneur, a streaming and digital video producer-promoter – and how Amherst College prepared him for his career. In the last 20 or so years, Howard has owned or co-owned restaurants, a construction company, and even a concert promotion outfit. These days, Howard runs a bike shop and a business built around famed maker, YouTube personality, and soon-to-be Netflix star, Jimmy DiResta.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How a personal loss on 9/11 motivated him to leave a career in finance for main street – and how the events of that day still motivate him

Advice he would give Amherst College students and alumni about going into business for themselves

Why he never puts his job title on his business cards
