Fresh from the Hill: Inside Stories of Noteworthy Cornellians
Society & Culture
Jeanne Hwang Lam ’04 wants to read your story. Her company, Wattpad, has created a network for users to read, write, and share stories within a platform of 80 million readers. Join host Yasmin Alameddine ’16 as she chats with Jeanne about her path at Cornell and how it led to Wattpad.
“If you know there’s something else you want to do, just go do that. And it doesn’t have to be the right thing, it just has to be better than what you’re currently doing.”
From Accenture to business school, Jeanne reminds us that not all routes in life are direct, but the Cornell community provides support with every turn. Don’t miss out on this inspiring interview!
