[[File:IanReedeUIFProfilePic2.jpg|thumb|IanReedeUIFProfilePic2.jpg]]My name is Ian Reede; I am in my third year at Kent State University, studying business with a focus in entrepreneurship. I aspire to build an infrastructure around the needs of students struggling to find their way in the current education climate. I look to accomplish this change with the knowledge I am gaining through work with[http://hacksu.cs.kent.edu Hacksu], [https://khe.io Kent Hack Enough],[https://www.kent.edu/blackstonelaunchpad BlackStone Launchpad],[https://www2.kent.edu/cebi/lab.cfm John S. Brinzo Entrepreneurship Laboratory], as well as my work as a cook in the culinary field. The goal is to build an understanding of how people of many different backgrounds, work, create, and play together. Currently, My goal is to build a business using solely reasources and students, available on the kent campus. The purpose is not only to build a viable product in the Kent state entrepreuship ecosystem that would benefit the student population, but also to develop a better understanding of how far we have yet to go.
