Profession: Business Owner/Manager

Inspired by: I started as a high school science project, and have since grown to an award-winning 501(c)(3) non-profit organization SunSaluter which aims to decrease energy poverty and improve access to clean water through local technology entrepreneurship. While on the surface SunSaluter addresses energy poverty and clean water, I am inspired with the many issues that are interrelated and have direct and indirect causes and solutions on both individual and systemic levels. There are many challenges associated with our target demographic of users who both lack electricity and access to clean water which motivates me to innovate new design in my product.
