Thank you so much for the wonderful, life changing experience. I feel so more connected to the Korean community and want to become a future leader!
All the mentorship time were good because I was able to ask questions that I had in mind but didn't have the right people to ask.
Katalyst was a great way to meet so many professionals from both industry and academia!
I really enjoyed listening to the speakers and the mentors. Everyone was super willing to help and connect.
