Rising senior Karen Vera Sanchez always knew she wanted to be an engineer. That, combined with her passion for business, led her to IOE, where she could pursue both interests.
As an entrepreneurship minor and U-M IOE student pursuing the finance concentration, Vera Sanchez chose IOE for its holistic focus on finance, data analytics, optimization and human factors.
She has applied these skills as former co-president and current executive advisor of the entrepreneurship student org, @mpoweredentrepreneurship, where she helped open doors for more students on campus, and as founder of her own startup, working to expand access to higher-education financing back home in Mexico City and beyond.
In this Q&A, Karen shares the story behind @edubridgemx, the fintech startup she founded to provide flexible student loans to students in emerging markets.
