Connected as Diane Hendrix (231 friends)
Diane has produced PBS and indie documentaries and web shorts for years. While teaching at MIT, the moxie of students starting global enterprises inspired her, so she researched innovators and mentors to launch YWI. January and July in East Africa revealed growing enterprise and countless stories in Africa and America, so she’s producing webisodes for both continents.
