Campbell at Drive Capital, and conversations with Collin J Larkin, MD & Liam McDonald at Sandbox Industries and The Blue Venture Fund, to reconnecting with alumni Nora Huang and Max Walts over dinner with Aaron Pickard from Dorm Room Fund, and valuable advice from Samara Mejia Hernandez and Peri Ehlman at Chingona Ventures—we gained so much from this journey. ??
