Northwestern Intersections

Ishan Daya '13 on Building his Business with Fellow Alumni


Listen Later

Ishan Daya graduated from Northwestern where he studied flute performance and his career path has been far from traditional since then. He has a great perspective on learning something new from every experience, stemming from his first job at Summerfest in Milwaukee but he has come a long way since then.
