"I currently work as a Program Associate for the GW Innovation Center. It is my job to basically run the makerspace that we have on the George Washington University campus. This involves hosting educational workshops and events for students, as well as acting as a consultant for students or faculty that come to me with ideas for a new product. It's been great so far, but unfortunately I can't do much remotely. The overall experience has refined my management skills and made me a better mentor."
