Fellow:Gillian Hook
Gillian Hook, a senior at Elon University, is part of the Fall 2018 UIF cohort. She is a business student at Elon’s Love School of Business, focusing on an undergraduate degree in Accounting. While business is her main path, she also enjoys and takes classes in chemistry and STEM.
Gillian is originally from Pittsburgh, PA, and this is where she first found her interest in startup companies. In the spring of 2017, she had the opportunity to attend her first Angel Investment meeting with a company in Pittsburgh. Right away, she was intrigued by the process and vowed to learn more. By the summer of 2018, she had become an active participant in Next Act Fund, a woman led Angel Investment group in Pittsburgh. One reason Gillian became a University Innovation Fellow is to expand her interest in innovation and entrepreneurship, based on her experience with Angel Investment.
