In this episode, I interviewed Janna Lao. Janna Lao is a transfer to UC San Diego from Santa Monica College. She is currently pursuing a degree in Economics while minoring in Business. While in pursuit of her degree, she maintains the role of President of Global Business Brigades, Executive Vice President of Business Council and general member in Phi Beta Lambda and Intergenerational Connection.

Janna is one of the more passionate leaders I have met in my time throughout college. Coming from a diverse background and being very extroverted, her insights from this episode really makes one think about what it means to truly listen to the ones you lead and I find a common path between our leadership styles.

Janna gives a big shoutout to Business Council, Global Business Brigades, and Phi Beta Lambda and her many personal friends their constant encouragement and general experience in her life.

In this episode, I interview Erik Hanzlick a senior undergraduate student at UC San Diego studying International business. Throughout his academic career, he was a vice president for Delta Sigma Pi, president of Triton Consulting Group, and president and founder of Business Council at UC San Diego. During his early professional career, he’s had the opportunity to intern at Qualcomm as an IT Project Manager, and most recently, at IBM as a blockchain product manager. He is also the founder of Exalton, an enterprise file sharing, and synchronization (EFSS) platform built to create trust between parties managing sensitive or high-value digital assets.

Personally, I know Erik as one of the most inspirational and ambitious leaders I have met in my time at UC San Diego. Within this episode, we explore what it means to be a leader in a collaborative, and visionary space, and in particular Erik’s viewpoint of what defines his leadership over the course of the past few years.

Erik gives a big shoutout to his friends in UCSD Triton Consulting Group, Delta Sigma Pi, and Business Council of UC San Diego for the experiences he has had there.
