I hope to uncover guidelines to what tools, spaces, and contexts are needed for a successful environment. It is expected that implementation of these learning environments would increase students' engagement in solving society's toughest problems.</span><br/><br/><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">Because My mission is to empower people to make great products that affect the world.</span></span></span> <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; line-height: 17px;"></span> <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; line-height: 17px;">Current E&I initiatives:</span> <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; line-height: 17px;"></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;"></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">Working with the Office of the Vice President of my experience researching educational theory Research to expand the Thinc@UGA (thinc.uga.edu) initiative, which seeks to promote entrepreneurship and innovation on campus, to include events beyond Thinc Week.</span></span></span> <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br/></span></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">Created a make-a-thon series called "thinc-a-thon" which fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, design thinking, and entrepreneurship among students from all disciplines and diverse education environmentslevels.</span></span> <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br/></span></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">Designed an entrepreneurship and innovation website for bringing awareness to the resources and programs available on campus for learning about entrepreneurship, skills in programmingdeveloping ideas, and growing entrepreneurial mindset I can do learning environment design consulting better than other instructional technologistsstudent businesses.&nbsp;</span></span> <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br/><br/span></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">My mission is Collaborating with Science Library to empower people to make great products that affect build the worlduniversity's first makerspace.</span></span> <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br/></span></span> *<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 17px;">Assisting in the creation of a Council of Economic Engagement with the purpose of building a better UGA through expansion, promotion and enhancement of university economic engagement and the role students play in it.</span></span>
