My name is Dylan Balzer, a recent UF graduate, and I currently work at UF Innovate, our university’s biotech incubator. Over the past few months, I’ve been building my own startup, Layman, a business and tech news app.   I’m currently looking for a technical co-founder and was wondering if you might know of any master’s students who could be a good fit. If possible, I’d appreciate it if you could share this opportunity or my contact information with them and I can explain more. I messaged Professor Lok about this and he referred me to you about the CISE Graduate Blog.   You’re welcome to share my LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-balzer-5a2891221/ Thanks & talk soon!
