A Side Hustle Trifecta feat. Ben Brakenwagon, Bella D’Ascoli and Ye Tian

On this special episode of Northeastern Next, meet three entrepreneurs with exciting side hustles! Our first guest, Ben Brakenwagon, transcends the typical entrepreneur convention through his own personal side hustle selling rock climbing equipment, his work at a tech startup, and everything in between. Following Ben, current Northeastern student Bella D'Ascoli celebrates the legacy of her late friend Samantha Hemphill by offering an opportunity to purchase Sam’s exemplary artwork, with all profits donated to a charitable foundation started by her family in her honor. Finally, meet our third guest, Ye Tian, the founder of Crafts Zone Studio. Tian has his very own brick and mortar craft studio in Brookline, MA where you can create personalized, one-of-a-kind gifts with your loved ones. Learn about how he uses Northeastern’s vast alumni network to grow his business.
