UACI Interns

Meet the UACI Intern team! Our rock star interns have been putting in a lot of work and deserve their moment in the spotlight. With funds from the U.S. Small Business Administration and Wells Fargo, we have grown our intern program and pair students with female founders.

Sophia Mischke, chemical engineering undergrad working with uPetsia. Mischke explained, "I really loved learning about uPetsia's technology and speaking to veterinarians about the benefits and challenges of applying the technology."

Gabriela Pedroza, Animal and Comparative Biomedical Sciences grad, who is working with Reglagene. "With the project I worked on, I could reasonably help people make an informed decision. It's not something I can say I'd ever done before, so it was new and exciting".

Xinyi Hu, Statistics and Data Science undergrad major who is working alongside CleanFi. Hu commented, "I enjoyed helping to make a small but significant contribution towards building an environmental-friendly community with the help of the company I worked with."

Cassidy Mannier, graduate student studying Biomedical Engineering (AMP), working with Ambr Grading. Mannier says, "I like exploring industries I'm unfamiliar with: I got to learn all about the world of trading cards with my current startup, Ambr Grading."

Lucy Gonzalez, Cellular and Molecular Medicine grad student, working with Dwindles. Gonzalez explained, "the startup I am working on allows me to get out of my comfort to initiate conversation with different merchants to extract information needed."
