In the Summer of 2023, I had the incredible opportunity to be part of the prestigious Jerome Fisher Management & Technology Summer Institute program offered by the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Engineering and Wharton Business School.

It was an intense 3-week program, and I had the time of my life soaking in every single minute of this amazing experience. We started the mornings with crash courses on scaling businesses, stock market investment, and comprehending the principles behind disruptive technology and product pricing from industry experts, and the afternoons were dedicated to engineering sessions and hands-on lab exercises that extended sometimes to very late-night sessions.

Visiting Morgan Stanley’s and Google's offices in NYC, I was fascinated to learn their innovative ways to conserve energy through engineered devices. These experiences converged during the capstone project, where teams had to conceive, create, and market an innovative product. I had a blast working with my team, and this experience was truly transformative, solidifying my passion for technology and entrepreneurship.
