As graduation approaches, we asked Jaclyn McVey to reflect on her time at NC State University and how she has been impacted by the entrepreneurship community. She highlighted her journey to finding NC State Entrepreneurship, how it impacted her college career and where she is headed in the future. One of her favorite parts of getting involved with entrepreneurship at NC State was finding a supportive, diverse and engaging community. “I rave about this community all of the time,” she added. “It is where I have felt most welcomed and supported on campus. You don’t have to want to start your own business to feel like you belong here. They want to help you build an entrepreneurial mindset that can help you be successful in any path of life.” Jaclyn will be graduating with a degree in business administration with a concentration in marketing from @ncstatepoole.

To say that her college career has been a show-stopping performance is an understatement. As the semester wraps up, we asked Rachel Harris to reflect on her time at NC State. She shared with us about how her experience as an Entrepreneurship Ambassador, Engineering Ambassador and member of @chordinationacappella shaped her time at NC State. Rachel believes that entrepreneurship is for anyone. "If you’re on the fence about getting involved with Entrepreneurship, don’t be! What do you have to lose? Entrepreneurship is for anyone and you do not have to have a business to be an entrepreneur." Rachel will be graduating with a degree in industrial engineering with a minor in vocal performance from @ncstateengr and @ncstatemusic.

"The entrepreneurial spirit has always been in my family. When I was young, my grandmother started her own logistics company in Vietnam. I came to America in 2013 and lived with my aunt who is also an entrepreneur. She has her own nail salon in Southern Pines. Having grown up surrounded by entrepreneurship, I knew I always wanted to have my own business just never knew what it is going to be about. When I was at Wake Technical Community College, I took an organic chemistry course that allowed me to combine my passion for science and creativity. I learned about the saponification of soap in one of my labs, which later on initiated my hobby in soap making. To me, soap is a beautiful art comprised of chemistry and creativity. I am able to express my technical skills and artistic side in many ways through soap making. Chemistry is the foundation for a good bar of soaps and art is an additional touch of creativity which adds appeal. When I transferred into NC State, I toured the Chemical Engineering department where they showed examples of different products that chemical engineers make such as shampoo, bleach, toothpaste, baby food, etc.. I instantly knew chemical engineering was the major I wanted to pursue. I wanted to be able to make cosmetic products that people use in everyday life. Through courses that I took at NC State and inspirations from student entrepreneurs around me, I came up with a startup business called Bon Sōp with an idea of utilizing on-campus dairy and fruit wastes to incorporate them into high quality soaps. I use skills I have learned from Chemical Engineering courses to optimize my soap making process and formulate soap recipes. The business is still at an early state right now but I hope to grow it further with my passion in cosmetics and sustainability and my career path in cosmetics industry. After graduation, I am going to be working full-time for Coty, as a process engineer. I am super excited to be able to continue my passion for engineering, cosmetic productions, and entrepreneurship through @cotyinc and @bonso_p." #FacesofthePack Meet Tran Nguyen (@trannguyenhh), a senior studying Chemical Engineering at @ncstateengr.
