My name is Pam Nelson and I am a senior at UCLA studying biology. Originally from Foxboro, Massachusetts, I became 3Daughters’ intern in July. I’m very interested in biotech, but wanted to confirm my interest in the field, prompting me to search for a summer internship. Being just 10 minutes away from my house, I thought it would be perfect if I could find a biotech internship at the Bio-Incubator in Mansfield. While browsing the companies at Mansfield Bio-Incubator, I was immediately drawn to 3Daughters. Being a young female, IUD user, and one of 3 daughters myself, I was very excited by the product and its potential - I wanted to become involved in any way I could. After calls with some of the 3Daughters team members, I learned that the 3Daughters team didn’t actually work day-to-day in Mansfield; in fact, everyone worked remotely. However, Mary Beth Cicero, 3Daughters CEO, thought it would be really beneficial for Georgina Miles, Marketing Coordinator, and I to collaborate in person for the summer after taking me on as an intern. She arranged for us to have desks at the Bio-Incubator, where we began meeting every Tuesday and Thursday. The space was perfect for us—equipped with soundproof conference rooms for team calls, quiet areas for focused work, a ping pong table for breaks, and a coffee station that was definitely put to good use. I enjoyed coming into work in Mansfield. The people from other companies that I met were always respectful, and Alex and/or Russ were often there to check in and answer my questions or help with things such as printing. Now, I am back at UCLA and continuing my work with 3Daughters remotely, but reflect fondly on my time at the Mansfield Bio-Incubator and having the privilege of collaborating with Georgina in person throughout the summer. It helped foster my passion and interest in biotech and women’s health specifically, and I am more excited than ever about the future of 3Daughters. Thank you to the Mansfield Bio-Incubator for being such a staple part of this experience!
Additionally, 3Daughters really enjoyed attending and presenting at the Bio-Incubator’s pitch competition back in May. Photos from the competition are attached below.
