Women Who Reign: Chelsea Conard

“Don’t let your fear of the past affect the outlook of your future. Live for what tomorrow has to bring, not what yesterday has taken away.”

Tell us about yourself along with a fun fact!
Hello! My name is Chelsea and I am a junior studying Economics and Computer Science at DePauw University. On campus, I’m the president of Women in Economics and Business, a member of Women in Computer Science, in a business program, in an honors technology program, and a member of Alpha Phi. I really overload my schedule because I believe in maximizing every day and I’m trying to chase down my passion. So a fun fact, is that I’ve decided to move abroad for a year to learn more about myself. I’m currently writing from Berlin, as an intern at an international consultancy firm, and I am moving to Shanghai at the end of January for 6 months.

Making the decision to move to countries where I don’t speak the languages or know a single person is a huge risk. And to make the decision, let alone think about the decision, alongside many dissenters made me insecure. But I think that if it’s on your mind, you should definitely pursue it. And I know I would have regretted this if I didn’t just give it a chance.
