Full Bio
Nicole Armstrong graduated from Binghamton University’s Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Sciences with a B.S. in computer science. An early love of technology was the catalyst that prompted Armstrong to pursue a STEM undergraduate degree, but working with like-minded classmates and being “surrounded by nerds” provided her with the skills and confidence to pursue a career driven by an understanding that technology can change lives.
After becoming the first Black female computer science graduate of Watson College, Armstrong was prepped and ready for “corporate America.” Armstrong went on to co-found a company with Princeton Review founder, John Katzman, and together raised a total of $12 million in initial funding. She has been featured in Vanity Fair as one of 25 Black women who founded a company and raised over $1 million in venture capital, as well as being featured on CNN as part of the “Million Dollar Club,” which highlights the accomplishments of Black women founders.
Armstrong currently serves as the CEO of TechBridge, a nonprofit with a mission to eliminate generational poverty through the innovative use of technology.
