About Jt Schmid
I\'m currently studying Economics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill while competing as a Division 1 swimmer for the UNC Swim and Dive Team. As a three-time ACC finalist and 2024 U.S. Olympic Trials qualifier, swimming has taught me valuable lessons in time management, discipline, and resilience.Alongside my athletic pursuits, I’m the founder of Schmiddy Inc, a hot sauce company that I started from the ground up. I’ve handled everything from brand development to legal and financial setup and even product R&D. With nearly bottles produced, I’m in the process of scaling up for retail distribution.I’m passionate about helping people and believe that the best way to make a positive impact is by applying both my analytical skills and my desire to support others. I’m exploring various career paths where I can continue to grow while helping others achieve their goals, with commercial real estate being one of the fields that particularly excites me.In addition to my academic and entrepreneurial efforts, I’m actively involved in leadership programs at UNC, mentoring first-year student-athletes, and volunteering for community events like Swim Across America.Looking to connect with professionals and explore opportunities across a range of industries.
