WELCOME TO CENTRL STATION

Welcome to the May Edition of C/O Digest!

This month, we're bringing you upcoming events at our Portland and Lake Oswego locations, a member spotlight featuring Tushar Kumar, founder of Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors, a complimentary gif, and a thought-provoking read on AI and the future of work that we think is worth your time.

In honor of AANHPI Heritage Month, we're also excited to celebrate the vibrant contributions of the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities. This is a time to reflect on their rich cultural heritage, accomplishments, and the many ways they continue to enrich our shared experiences, both here at CENTRL and beyond.

From our workspace to yours,

Last Month, CENTRL Seattle Capitol Hill hosted an Earth Day trash walk through the neighborhood, bringing together members and community locals for a half-hour cleanup that filled three large bags. Afterward, participants fueled up on snacks and took home packets of native wildflower seeds.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Tushar Kumar is a Private Wealth Advisor and the founder of Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors, based at CENTRL South Bay. Tushar and his firm specialize in helping tech professionals and business owners achieve and maintain financial independence through customized, goals-driven financial planning.

Tushar's path into financial advising is deeply personal. At 14, his family faced an unexpected crisis when his father was diagnosed with stage four cancer. Navigating the financial uncertainty that followed, his mother worked with a financial planner who brought structure, clarity, and confidence to an otherwise overwhelming situation. That experience never left him.


Today, Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors is built on the belief that relationships are the strongest form of currency, and that the same guidance that helped his family can help the clients he serves.


Hey Tushar, what's Twin Peaks Wealth Advisors all about? 

Helping tech professionals and business owners achieve and maintain financial independence.


What's the mission?

To provide financial confidence through customized advice that gives clients the ability to pursue their goals.


What about CENTRL works for you?

CENTRL handles so much of what a business owner doesn't want to deal with: security, janitorial, IT, facilities. It just takes that off your plate.

WORKING BETTER

In this sharp essay from The Digitalist Papers, economists David Autor and Neil Thompson argue that the real question isn't whether AI will automate your job, but which parts of it, and that the answer makes all the difference.


While this piece is a long one, we think it's worthwhile to bookmark, especially for anyone contemplating where their work is headed.


Check out their full paper here.
