As a UX designer, Holland loves understanding how people feel and building something to their needs that is also delightful to use. She’s currently exploring ways to help farmers create resilient, sustainable soil for her Sandbox startup and hopes to one day open a zero-packaging grocery store!
INNOVATING WITH CODE
Santiago
Santi started innovating as a teen in Argentina (e.g. when he and his brother decided to layer two pairs of ripped underwear to cover the holes in both!). He’s now working on synthetic data generation with a research group at MIT and figuring out how to make email marketing more interactive and effective.
FINDING PURPOSE IN CREATION
Carolyn
Carolyn believes that the best way to solve problems isn’t to ask other people to solve them, but to take initiative and create solutions herself. As a recent grad, Carolyn continues to build her company that aims to mitigate sexual assualt and dating violence. She sees creation as her way of worshipping her Heavenly Parents.
ADDING VALUE IN HIS UNIQUE WAY
Lex
Lex loves that he doesn’t have to be the smartest out there; his experiences and creativity adds value to both the Creators community and his business because they’re unique to him. As a small business owner, Lex has been growing with the business, becoming a jack-of-all-trades, and learning to find life balance.
ADAPTING ART TO STARTUPS
Aspen
An artist-turned-designer, Aspen has adapted her art skills to meet startup needs by designing custom app illustrations. When she’s not freelancing, Aspen experiments; she believes exploring her multi-disciplinary passions, and good and bad ideas alike, improve her creativity and design thinking.
BUILDING FOR PEOPLE
Fritz
Fritz loves tech but finds business ideas by taking time away from technology to observe the pains of people around him. Fritz is currently creating a more connected world by building a business that provides on-demand interpretation services. He also loves helping those in Haiti create businesses of their own.
