Lead Instructor | Henrico Innovation Challenge
Fall 2024
“The Henrico Innovation Challenge provides middle school and high school students (within Henrico County) with different opportunities to help prepare students for global entrepreneurial competitions like the Diamond Challenge, Conrad Challenge, and the Global Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge.”
I was fortunate to be asked back to assist with the Henrico Innovation Challenge after my mentor work with them the previous year. This time I was lead instructor for their four day workshops. I created the content for the sessions I was with the students. I helped prepare them for submitting their projects to global competitions as well as their school run competition and fair.
