You mentioned you’re also in the E-Scholars program, do you want to start a business?

That’s what we’re doing right now-from start to finish. I’m starting an enameling jewelry business. It’s going to be mostly online, selling at makers fairs, stuff like that.

What does it mean to you to have support from professors?

It’s really encouraging and a confidence builder. It’s great to have someone steer you in a direction they think would be best for you.
