My next event:
For the past decade, I’ve taught entrepreneurship classes at the college level, led workshops, and mentored artists. My friends and clients constantly ask if they can audit my classes, and now they can!
Last year I rewrote my foundational entrepreneurship course to present online for the first time, and realized that I have the materials and the platform now to share this with a broader audience. I figured, WHY NOT OPEN IT UP TO EVERYONE?
So join me this spring for a 12-week introduction to entrepreneurship course. It’ll be fun... and way cheaper than college tuition! CLICK HERE TO JOIN
