<Title>The Challenge and Excitement of Being a Student AND a CEO</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">April 28, 2010
    12 – 1:00p.m. • Commons Room 331
    
    Starting and growing a new business is both exciting and challenging. Now add onto that the
    responsibilities of being a student as well!
    
    Come listen to UMBC student entrepreneurs talk about their experiences in launching their companies.
    
    <strong>Featured student panelists:</strong>
    Martin Figueroa, '11, Managing Member, ROM Designs, LLC
    Major: Media and Communications
    ROM Designs, LLC specializes in the creation and sale of art on sneakers. 
    
    Christine Osazuwa, '11, CEO and Editor-in-Chief, Scene Trash Magazine &amp;
    Promotions
    Major: Interdisciplinary Studies - Music Journalism and Management
    Scene Trash Magazine is a regional monthly print magazine that focuses on unsigned and
    independent bands on the East Coast. Both the magazine and promotions components set out to develop and gain exposure for up and coming bands. 
    
    Dehyu Sinyan, '11, President and CEO, Virtual Parent, LLC
    Major: M.S. Systems Engineering
    As an undergraduate student at UMBC, Dehyu came to the realization that time management
    was not his strongest ability. Furthermore, there was no service provided that used popular
    technology to assist students in learning how to manage their time, develop effective study
    skills, and keep on track with their academic and personal schedules. Capitalizing on this
    overwhelming need, Dehyu conceived the Virtual Parent, a service offering a copyrighted
    dynamic scheduling application that provides university students with reminders about
    academic and personal events through the use of automated text messages.</div>
