Tyler is a third year Pharmacy student at Northeastern.
While he started as strictly a health science student, he was somehow roped into the "Entrepreneurship" business by some fantastic people. Always an opportunist, he hopes to use this newfound knowledge to eventually work on his own pharmaceutical startup, provided that he can raise the capital.
He hates when things are disorganized, and as Director of Operations, does his best to prevent those kind of catastrophes. Some even claim he does a good job!
He is really socially awkward, even though people sometimes mistake that for his sense of humor. However, he is nice enough on his good days, and only bites on Wednesdays.
Next time you see him, you should definitely go say hello!
