They Called Me a Monster, Until the Truth Came Out

I was known as the ultimate black sheep among CEOs in our industry.

While other companies treated interns like disposable, cheap labor, I did the exact opposite.

I fought against the entire board's objections.

I made sure every single intern received one-on-one mentorship, paid training, housing stipends, and even fully reimbursed Uber rides for late-night overtime.

The internship program was running incredibly well.

But just as I was planning to expand it, a heavily edited audio clip went viral on TikTok and YouTube.
