In May 2016, my classmates and I travelled to Kigali -Rwanda, to work with students at the Akilah Institute for Women, a college dedicated to enabling young women to achieve economic independence and obtain leadership roles in the workplace and society. 

Understanding the Entrepreneurs

I held a series of design workshop sessions to help mentor the 5 students throughout the program. I helped students establish a business plan, create websites, and commercialize their products. Initially all 5 students were selling their products and services to local visitors. I helped them build a social media strategy, and assisted with retrieving sales globally.
