"Sophia was a wonderful presenter providing actionable and motivating tips for fellow UChicago alumni. She provided insights on how to effectively work in the tech business without having a tech background, touching on product management, front-end vs back-end development, user experience design and testing, and analytics. We loved working with Sophia!"
