How did working at the Center for Innovation impact your career?
Working at the Center for Innovation impacted my career by preparing me for the work environment. With my experience at the Center, I’m able to properly navigate a working environment that has flexibility in its processes. I’m able to engage appropriately and contribute efficiently. The experience provided me with such great transferable skills. I have also been able to build connections for long lasting relationships that have led to plenty of opportunities like programs that were the start to job offers.
What was your favorite memory while working at the Center?
My favorite memory while working at the Center was probably the homecoming coaster project. As we were thinking of ways to share the impacts the Center can make and resources available to students that the Center has, we came up with a project to do just that.
What advice would you give to current Innovation Fellows?
Your dreams are never too small. Make a plan, build the right community, stay disciplined, and go for it!
