Alumni Panelist
Kyle Fitzpatrick
Kyle graduated in 2010 and is currently cofounder & COO at The Feel Good Lab. His biggest take-away from entrepreneurial programs are people > everything. Making connections with like-minded individuals through these programs will provide compounding benefits to your career as you grow older.
Matthew Lombardo
Matt Lombardo is a Management and Engineering for Manufacturing class of 2020. He is currently a Starship Manufacturing/Launch Engineer at SpaceX and says he knows he would not be in this position if not for taking part of programs like HackUConn, Innovation Quest, and spending a whole lot of time in the LCIZ. He loves problem solving through trial and error and collaborating with others and says HackUConn was the perfect playground to do just that!
