Join us next week when the Alumni Speaker Series returns!

The Alumni Speaker Series returns! 🦚🦚 Join us on Tuesday, September 15th at 6pm central when we talk with Kelly Larson, a 2000 Fayette Campus alum on the main Upper Iowa University page as she presents "From the Farm to the Final Frontier: An Entrepreneur’s Unlikely Path to Success".

With a career spanning two decades as an entrepreneur in multiple industries, Kelly has embraced the opportunities presented to her using the leadership skills she honed in on while as a student. Now, as she navigates what’s next, Kelly will talk about the reality of being an entrepreneur, how the skills developed helped to shape the professional she is, and when to know you’re ready to take that leap for what’s next. Tune in while Kelly talks about her journey after UIU and the experiences that surround it.
