Do Tromp, PhD

Founder

Do Tromp has a PhD in neuroscience and started her first business when she was 9 selling eggs from her chickens. In 2019 she started a coworking space in Davis, California that serves 63 businesses on a quarterly basis. She loves to learn, optimize processes, and share the resources she creates with others. She is concerned about the disappearance of the middle class and the decline in people starting new businesses (read her thoughts here). She hopes that this resource will help anyone take the dive and start building their own business.

Do was in charge of conceiving and creating the content for the Start a Business app.
