Interim Asst. Director & marketing maven
What do you love about LaunchNET?
I love my job at LaunchNET - to get to teach, advise, create, and learn about new things all the time in such a supportive environment is a dream come true. I love supporting and helping our clients grow and learn, watching them become more confident and successful. I also relish being able to be involved in different committees and helping out different departments across campus, since I love to meet new people and learn new things.
What inspires you as an entrepreneur and/or advisor?
Helping my clients achieve their goals and supporting them through the good and tough parts of being an entrepreneur, as well as showing students that they don't need to have a business to think entrepreneurially.
What's your weirdest (or most interesting) entrepreneurial related experience?
My first business started as a result of going to a "learn to knit" class with my then-7-year-old son (who is now 25!). I ended up learning as well and liking it so much that I started designing and knitting accessories for all my friends in New York.
What's your favorite Starbucks drink?
honey almond flat white
Fictional character you identify with the most (and why):
Marvin the Martian- because I like to always be exploring new territory and feel like an outsider most of the time
