Sasha Perskie, Co-Founder & CEO
I'm Sasha Perskie, a senior at Red Bank Regional High School in New Jersey. I co-founded Bridge To Business with Tyler Deng to give high school students who aspire to careers in business – like us – the chance to learn from and make contacts with some of the top experts in the business world.
We believe in helping to spread education and opportunity to students who share our interests but may not have the means or connections to pursue them. This conviction is also what led me to found and develop another youth education program built around another one of my passions: music. I spend much of my time performing, writing, recording and teaching music, as well as working in the music business; you can learn more about that at sashaperskiemusic.com. In 2022 I launched a music education program called Play It Forward, which enlists trained musicians to pass along the gift of music education to children whose families do not have the means to pay for instruments and/or lessons. Today Play It Forward provides free music education to children across two chapters in New Jersey and a third overseas. Learn more at playitforwardmusic.org.
