Taylor Hendricks

University of Portland, Oregon


          I'm an Entrepreneurship & Innovation major with a minor in Sustainability at the University of Portland, Oregon. I believe strongly that translucency and ethical business will be the deciding factor in determining the future of the global economy. 'Sustainability' is often abused and misinterpreted-- To be sustainable is to work conscientiously with the natural patterns of our planet, respecting our natural limitations, and understanding that the most cost effective resource is the one not used. 

          At UP, I am involved in the Entrepreneurial Scholars Program, which teaches a well-rounded business mindset with hands-on experience. We're responsible for maintaining mentor relationships with local business leaders that relate to our field and are given the opportunity for both domestic (New York) and international travel to practice global business. I chose Sweden as my international destination because they are pioneering sustainable initiatives in the modern world for many different industries. 

          Currently, my passion lies in renewable energy and thinking creatively in order to establish cleaner, smarter alternatives to power the modern world. On the side, I really enjoy art & design, music production, and celebrating the beautiful outdoors with the people I love.
