Alexis Nash is interested in helping people achieve economic independence. That led the master’s student to create Popspace, a web-based marketplace for affordable, temporary retail and event space. The idea won both the UWM Student Startup Challenge and the New Ventures Business Plan Competition.
Nash received a master of human resources & labor relations degree. She was one of six graduates honored during UWM’s May 2016 commencement ceremonies. More than 3,000 students received diplomas.
