• Comment: We need independent, reliable sources that significantly feature the subject. Please do read WP:BIO in detail.
  Sources relating to his alma mater are not independent. A LinkedIn link is of no value. Being acknowledged in an academic article does not particularly help either. Independent meaning the subject should have no particular association with the publisher. The 40 under 40 feature could perhaps be relevant; I can't access it to know how in-depth it is but suspect it would fail WP:SIGCOV. In any case it would be insufficient by itself.
