Summary

With my experience in business case development, research in different fields, and internships on entity organization projects, I was eager to join Lab2Market Discover. I am currently working on a startup with my classmates, and from managing operations and logistics to working with manufacturers, my entrepreneurial journey has taught me that anyone can be a successful entrepreneur, and I am still working on it. Even through constant experimentation and learning, I have developed a strong interest in turning ideas into viable businesses. I believe my experience and determination are a good fit with the program's mission of empowering different groups to commercialize innovative research.
