Nancy Newman is SVP of HR at Viacom Inc.

Ms. Newman praised the myKlovr platform by saying, "I have never seen a product that can do so much, for so many, at such a low cost. The fact that myKlovr can be offered as a Total Rewards Benefit package makes it a compelling proposition for Benefits Managers. Kudos to myKlovr, you fixed one of the most pressing HR issues, how to attract and retain talent."
Larry Kirshner is Co-President at Frenkel Benefits – an EPIC Company. Joining Frenkel as EVP and an equity-holding partner in 2001, Mr. Kirshner has played a significant role in the exponential growth that Frenkel Benefits has achieved along with the firm's leadership position in the industry.

As a benefits provider, I am thrilled to offer the first ever virtual college counselor to our dedicated workforce and clients alike," Mr. Kirshner commented.
MyKlovr's founder and Ceo, Gustavo G. Dolfino added, "It is a privilege and an honor to have Nancy and Larry join our advisory board. Their guidance and expertise will prove crucial to myKlovr's scalability."
With a rate of nearly 500 children per high-school counselor, college admissions is a major issue facing most families. MyKlovr's artificial intelligence driven virtual college counselor, helps students get admitted to the school of their dreams, by focusing on both EQ and IQ, and doing so at an early age, where strategic interventions are more likely to succeed.
The myKlovr benefit is provided by companies to their employees for the benefit of their families, either on a company paid basis, as part of a total rewards benefit offering, or employee paid, on a voluntary after-tax basis.
