Riley Csernica makes entrepreneurship a simple equation, especially for young adults. The 24-year-old biomedical engineer explains how she co-founded a medical brace device company to create a job she would love. Through her own experience, shared with candor and humor, Csernica demonstrates how her sense of accomplishment and what she has learned along the way far exceed anything she would have gotten from an entry-level job out of college.
In just a few short years, Riley Csernica earned three degrees and started a company with her Clemson classmate Chelsea Ex-Lubsekie. With her Mom’s blessing, an MBA, plus two degrees in biomedical engineering, Csernica became an inventor and entrepreneur. Taking the design from a class project, Csernica and her partner worked with athletic trainers, orthopedic surgeons and patients to advance the shoulder brace device, developing an effective and revolutionary design. When Csernica isn’t developing future designs, she is involved with local community groups to support youth entrepreneurship. tarianorthotics.com

It all sounds too easy to believe
it's like 1+1=3
She looks like elizebeth holmes. Doesn't she?
Wow, I find myself resonating with her experience deeply. We have a similar background; I was rejected a few times from overqualification. Now, starting off with no network, no money, no mentors, no product, no background to flex, I'm planning on furthering a college project I see potential in to help people in hopes to make a living off of it in the future. I'm looking forward to incorporating our business with my friend this year, at age 21. Thanks for sharing this!
Literally said nothing
"and we'll be together forever." – brilliant sales pitch
Being rejected by his interviewer helped to her for asking the abilities and skills that she could have. Its importante to take one failure and use it for your own convenience.
Whoa whoa whoa… free office space in town? THAT EXISTS?
Hundreds of rejection is how you build company from zero.
where is the shoulder brace?
I teach my employees to be independent in business for yourself entrepreneurs. The ones that get it always become better at what they’re doing. The ones that don’t complain there isn’t any good jobs.
She’s funny. Great presentation
Cool, qute and sincere girl.
great women. you started that busniness form zero without money and expereience. good idea, I'll want to do something like you but I need someone else to support me. and I never found people who will support me include my girlfrind:(
Have to literally applause for this girl at the end of her talk!! Bravo Riley!!
She looks like Elisabeth Holmes.
This is the most inspiring .. from zero to one. Im gonna try my best
gone out of busniess?
You are very sharp. I loved the jokes although the crowd was catching em. Your spunky and full of enthusiasm keep it up
Hey everyone, I’m currently
trying to find out how one could make the lives of entrepreneurs a lot easier
😉
Which is why I have two very
simple questions:
1. As an entrepreneur, what are
the 2 biggest issues you’re dealing with when it comes to building a social
life or social circle besides the business?
2. Regarding your social circle,
what would you wish for more than anything else?
Thanks so much in advance – looking forward to reading your
answers!
Anybody else wanted to see the dang brace shoot
Beautiful, smart, a lovely smile and a go getter attitude. I like her.
Great amazing
Hey guys! I need help answering a question to better understand my target audience. Please help!
As an entrepreneur, do you struggle with gaining muscle/weight? If so, what are the two biggest issues you have with gaining weight?
Thank you for this speech Riley!
Great . Just love it.
X to the power of X approaches 1 as X approaches zero, but does it mean that zero to the power of zero equates to 1?
Great
Great speaker for such a young person.
What a story!!! Cann't express how I am feeling.
Great story!!!
Maaaaaaan this is exacly how I feel at the moment, time to move back to my parents house I guess hahaha
I need more advice like this; I can’t get my Idea to takeoff.
1 idea to Defeat 0 Awesome
I needed this thank u , its a motivation to never give up and always try hard, u must thinking and having faith that you will get it ..
So has this company actually gone anywhere in the last five years? Because google search results suggest the answer is no. "Creating" is to business as conception is to parenthood – the easiest step in the process. Not impressed.
Very inspirational, where can we find friends like that right?
Moral of the story: be young.
You can do it…. no excuses! You just need to start.
Just an observation… I can hear one of these TEDx Talks, male or female, and know that it's a TEDx talk. Everyone has the same tone of voice, the same pattern… Not saying that it's bad. Just saying
What a beautiful soul. Listening to her is so calming and assuring .
the epitome of white privlege
Sorry for the honesty, but this girl didn't start a successful (or real) company, the advice she gives does not work and she's proof of that. She has no business teaching newcomers how to start a business, the only thing correct in this talk is that it is indeed possible to create a profitable business form nothing, but not by following these methods.
All ted talks are fake news
Don't let the bozos grind you down – Guy Kawasaki. Kudos girl
her real face appears 2 seconds 7:22
I like how short this was. Don’t need a 30 minute talk just to tell me “I can do it”
great.
