Graduating from Columbia Law School, Andrew Yang was conflicted with what to do with his career. As with many other young professionals, Yang knew the options outside of working on Wall Street were slim and likely career-diverting. After working with and starting several companies (rising to the rank of CEO in Manhattan GMAT), Yang founded "Venture for America," to increase the accessibility to the startup process for college grads [linkedin].
Options for getting Venture for America involved on campus:
