  1. Duke Silicon Valley: Building and Sustaining a Successful Enterprise DSV was one of the most life changing and impactful experiences that I have had at Duke. The opportunity to study in Silicon Valley and visit the most cutting edge companies and hear words of wisdom from some of the most successful leaders was invaluable. As a history and public policy major I had no clear sense of what industry I wanted to go into but after this summer, I now know that the tech industry is exactly where I want to end up. It is a culture that is futuristic, solving huge problems, and directly impacting the world and disrupting industries. It is a place that excites me and inspires me and I know that if I end up in Silicon Valley after school I will be happy.
