By Mitaly Chakraborty This weekend, I participated in the Blackstone LaunchPad Innovation Sprint alongside my incredible friends Mayesha Fahmida (CCNY), Nayeli (John Jay), Darlyn Pacheco (Queensborough CC), and Kay Jesly (Borough of Manhattan CC).

Since then, I’ve served continuously on its Executive Committee before becoming Program Director in 2016. I always felt it a true serendipity and privilege to be part of this …
