I am interested in enabling entrepreneurship and technology transfer from academics to industry. In addition to winning the 2000 Garage.com student business plan competition, I have helped construct communities of entrepreneurial minded individuals. While at Stanford University, I co-founded BioE2E, a nonprofit organization that is the the largest and most active network of biotech entrepreneurs in the Bay Area. After moving to Indiana, I co-founded the Indiana Biomedical Entrepreneur Network (IBEN) as a mechanism for stimulating biomedical entrepreneurship in central Indiana.
