Recorded in the Undergraduate Learning Center on the University of Texas at El Paso campus.As some of you may know, our team at the Mike Loya Center for Innovation and Commerce needed to take a short hiatus in March to restructure our podcasting strategy, so that we may continue to deliver quality information to university students interested in pursuing entrepreneurship as a viable career path. For today’s episode we have Mia Gomez, Alejandra Gamez, and Jon Avila talking about the various entrepreneurial resources that can be found on the UTEP campus.Subscribe to our podcast for future releases.

Welcome to this second episode of our Studio G Podcast!

As leaders in their own business, an entrepreneur's mental health is of top importance. They guide their team and a reflection on what they are feeling internal. Here to talk to us today is Dr. John Wiebe, Provost of The University of Texas at El Paso and Psychology Professor.

Dr. Wiebe has a Doctorate in Clinical Health Psychology from the University of Iowa. He has 21 years of experience at UTEP and helped to build the institution into a top-tier research university that is arguably the best Hispanic-serving university in the country. Dr. Wiebe’s research has focused on adaptation to severe chronic medical conditions. He is interested in individual differences in cognitive, emotional, and behavioral adaptation to chronic illness, and developing clinical interventions to improve patient adaptation and quality of life in resource-limited environments.

Join us for this episode, where we had the honor to interview Frank Garcia, CEO of Perikin Enterprises. He dives into his journey as a young entrepreneur, shares his wins and losses, and sends out a message to the future generation of young entrepreneurs. 

NOTE:

Studio G and The Mike Loya for Innovation and Commerce would like to thank Frank Garcia for his time and support.
