The Keller Center has honed my interest and skills in entrepreneurship. Through its certificate program in entrepreneurship, I was given the opportunity to take cool courses and attend amazing workshops and talks that had really given me insight into my future career plans.
How are you involved with the Keller Center?
I am pursuing the certificate in Entrepreneurship at Princeton. Given my entrepreneurial spirit, I have always been one to pursue EGR/entrepreneurship courses. I ended up enjoying all of the courses I have taken - it was refreshing from traditional Princeton courses and was more niche and focused. My experience with pursuing the certificate program really enabled me to learn by doing and shaped a lot of the choices I made for my post-graduation plans.
Share an inspiring story about your time at the Keller Center.
I was given the opportunity to meet Stuart Weitzman at one of his talks and workshop. I love fashion - and the intersection between it and entrepreneurship really spoke to me. Mr. Weitzman spoke about his experiences in building a global brand - a fashion business that required a lot of entrepreneurial skills - such as empathizing, opening one's eyes to opportunities, and the like. I even got a chance to take a picture with him!
