About the Episode

The what's what...

In just a moment, you’ll meet Chris Tsetsekos Co-Founder of FuzeMee — a new social media app for the college experience. 

Chris had accepted a Lacrosse scholarship and was ready to enroll in his freshman year at Tufts University…and then COVID hit. 

Once he learned that his first year at college was going to be spent mostly on Zoom, he decided to take a gap. And while some students use their gap years to travel across Europe or volunteer with a service organization, Chris decided to use his to try and make this idea he had had in his senior year of high school come to life. 

And that idea?  It was to build a better social media app for the entire college experience.  He didn’t know it at the time, but just a year later, in collaboration with his Co-Founders Jon and David, he would raise close to a million dollars from investors across the country.
