Kelly Gao's love for learning has taken her on an exhilarating, 7,000-mile journey from mainland China to Urbana-Champaign, where her experiences with the Gies College of Business Disruption Lab led to a full-time position with Panasonic.
"I like challenges, and learning new things" said Gao, associate software engineer, data science at Panasonic. "My parents taught me to look for different sources and points of view when trying to solve problems. Their guidance has stayed with me in everything I do."
