The Erb Institute welcomes you to join us in celebrating a recent award for one of our new Erber’s, Carissa De Young. Carissa is a newly-minted recipient of the Rackham Non-Traditional Fellowship. A path that started with a week long service trip to Mexico as a 15 year old became transformational; later embarking on a career to develop opportunity for those that struggle with endemic poverty in Ecuador. As a part of striving for depth of impact, Carissa made the decision to join the Erb Institute where an MS and MBA will be critical in developing the tools to “challenge the conventional bounds of agribusiness.” Please join us in congratulating Carissa!
