One of the Ain Center’s student Program Assistants, Fernanda Sesto ’23, has begun to interview student entrepreneurs to learn about their experiences and hear their perspectives. In this feature, Fernanda talks with recent UR alum Shelley Chen ’19, ’20 (e5) about her venture, Yolo Shadow and how she got into entrepreneurship.
Each month, the Ain Center hosts a guest speaker to talk about their entrepreneurial endeavors. The community organizers behind Roc the Business of Arts (an Arts in the Loop initiative) spoke on Friday, October 16. In addition to sharing their own entrepreneurial backgrounds, the three speakers provided insight on the series and their hopes for next steps.
