As Program Director of the Minnesota Innovation Corps (a site of the NSF-funded National I-Corps), I facilitate technology commercialization across the U of Minnesota by developing and coordinating educational and coaching programs for STEM students, post-docs, research staff and faculty. I also teach entrepreneurship and strategy courses at the Carlson School of Management. I serve on two nonprofit boards: Social Venture Partners - Minnesota, which helps innovative nonprofits that focus on at-risk youth, and WomenVenture, which helps women entrepreneurs who have limited access to resources.
