“Every day I am inspired by the people around me. Creating authentic human connections is essential to success; it allows us to understand one another better, create more meaningful products, and build lasting relationships. I have a lifelong connection to UW and with the knowledge, resources, and network at the Wisconsin School of Business, this corporate gal was able to become an entrepreneur and unleash her inner poet.”
