== Jeni Weber earned her Bachelors degree in Marketing from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). She's spent the past 6+ years doing marketing for education technology companies, seeing two companies through to acquisition. She currently works for an AI education startup. <br /> <span style="fontbr />Jeni's introduction to startups was in 2015 when she joined the first student-created startup company of UAB's Innovation Lab, Satterfield Technologies. She worked on business models, branding, and outreach. This work allowed her to rapidly learn through the Innovation Lab's mentors and hands-family:tahomaon experience. It was her initiation to the world of innovation and entrepreneurship. Jeni became a University Innovation Fellow in the Fall of 2016, and attended the Silicon Valley Meetups in March 2017 and November 2017. Her work as a Fellow while in school involved creating and maintaining the UAB Makerspace,genevaa hub for innovation and entrepreneurship on campus.<br /><br />But most of Jeni's work as a Fellow happened ''after'' graduating. Since 2018,sansJeni has annually interviewed candidates for the University Innovation Fellows program. She's supported new fellows at campuses around the world through their 6-serif;week UIF training and beyond. She helped host the Silicon Valley Meetups as a "FAB" in March 2022 and March 2023, as well as the first University of Twente Meetup in April 2024. She wrote the article "A Guide to Sharing Your Work">Related Linksfor the first edition of ''Change Forward'', a UIF publication. Jeni once took a personality test and discovered that 4 out of 5 of her top strengths have to do with empathizing with and supporting other people. She realized two things after taking that test: 1) what makes the UIF program so special to her is the human connection, and 2) her favorite way to contribute to the UIF program is by supporting incoming Fellows and their mentors.<br /span><br/> ==
