“I’d always wanted to be an entrepreneur. I thought, ‘Well, the University has all these amazing resources for students who want to pursue entrepreneurship or explore it’. So I participated in the Velocity 100k Challenge. I think that Velocity gave me the confidence to believe that I could execute what I’d come up with and bring it to market.”
