Vainius Normantas, Former Student and eleMENT Board

IMSA Class of 2017; Hi there! My name is pronounced vein-knee-is, I was the head eleMENTor in the 2016-17 school year, and I absolutely love teaching entrepreneurship. I strived for constant improvement in our program so that the eleMENT team could deliver the most valuable education. I'm also a big fan of white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and mangosteen.

Evan Sun, Former Student and eleMENT Board

IMSA Class of 2017; Hello! Unlike Vainius, my name isn't that hard to pronounce. Coming into IMSA, I had no idea what I planned to do in life. I decided to join eleMENT on a whim, and that was when I got introduced to entrepreneurship. Right now, I aspire to pursue biomedical entrepreneurship, taking scientific innovations in academia and spinning them off into companies that can improve the lives of others. While I wasn't writing curriculum for eleMENT or maintaining the website, you could find me working on my 3D printer, playing competitive pokemon, or cooking new dishes. Hit me up if you want to talk more!

I'm planning on studying computer science or statistics with a focus on computational biology, but I'm also strongly considering Russian and linguistics (and will probably change my major a few times before I settle on one!). I'm also into learning about entrepreneurship and electrochemistry, eating Thai food, and biking (though usually not at the same time). Shoot me an email!
