My minor in Entrepreneurship has been vital to my post-graduation success. I have spent the last few years in a multitude of aviation startups, including Surfair & ICON Aircraft. In these startups, I’ve been able to put into practice what I learned in the classroom—how to discover and understand meaningful problems, finding the first users for a new product and overcoming objections to lead to a sale.
