About. |
C.E. Moriarty is a Madison, NJ native who resides in Central New York with her fiance, Dan, and their two rescue dogs. She is an agent of change who has served as a leader and scholar of creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship for over a decade. She specializes in new venture development, building self-agency in others, and inspiring engagement to make a difference in both organizations and communities.
In 2010, as a sophomore at Syracuse University, she founded her first company after the success of an initial event in response to the Haiti Earthquake where she coordinated other student musicians to raise over a thousand dollars in relief funding. In 2012, she was awarded a Raymond von Dran (RvD) IDEA Award in the social enterprise category and seed capital for this start-up. This led to two entrepreneurship fellowships throughout her graduate studies in the Janklow Arts Leadership Program - Syracuse University's School of Arts and Sciences Entrepreneurship Fellowship and the Kauffman Foundation Entrepreneurship Engagement Fellowship. Throughout graduate school she also served as an entrepreneurial consultant for the Innovation and Disruptive Entrepreneurship Accelerator (IDEA) at Syracuse University where she co-led a group of 15 student entrepreneurs known as the IDEA Connectors whose purpose was to increase awareness of entrepreneurial resources on campus, provide opportunities for cross-campus collaboration and learning, mentor other student entrepreneurs, and identify and break down barriers for more inclusive student engagement with entrepreneurship. C.E. Moriarty now serves as the Director of Membership at CNY's premier high-growth tech incubator - The Tech Garden - and is an Adjunct Professor of Entrepreneurship at SUNY Oswego. She is Business Incubation Management certified and has a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt. In 2019, she was selected and participated in the year-long Leadership Greater Syracuse program which aims to identify and foster community leaders in CNY. Through these cumulative experiences, she has become particularly interested in Transformational Entrepreneurship or start-ups that simultaneously pursue the utmost levels of both economic impact and long-term societal impact. In her spare time she is an avid reader, amateur chef, and musician. She writes and speaks on a variety of topics related to creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship including leadership, self-agency, neuroscience, business modeling, and social enterprise. |
