Three 2024 grads show what can happen with curiosity, internships, good challenges and support from their Å·ÖÞ±ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø success team.
Some people make a career of improving lives. Dr. Jenn Hintzsche ¡¯06 also helps create them. The FDA has granted clearance to an at-home insemination kit that allows would-be parents to take control of their experience. Dr. Hintzsche created the device.
It comes down to opportunities and mentors. Just ask Max Petersen ¡¯10.
