Jun 2012 - Jul 2014

As a member of the media volunteering team for GTU Innovation Council, I contributed to the documentation and photography of events aimed at promoting startup culture among university students. Through this experience, I had the opportunity to work closely with various leaders and receive mentorship on topics such as Design Thinking, Product Development, and Business Model Canvas.

These workshops provided me with valuable exposure to the startup ecosystem and inspired me to pursue a vision of addressing challenges in education through innovative solutions. As a result, I launched my first startup, GTUPEDIA - For Students By Students, with the aim of empowering students with a platform for high-quality educational resources.

In addition, I had the opportunity to serve as a mentor for students participating in the Flash Venture, Ideation, and Business Model Canvas workshop. Through this role, I was able to further develop my research skills and gain valuable experience in guiding and supporting aspiring entrepreneurs.
