How Penji Came to Be
The Penji founders, studying Computer Science and Aerospace at UC Davis, found peers to be the ultimate resource. This inspired the Penji mission - to deliver personalized help to any student who needs it. And after a long and bumpy road, Penji has found the path to making this happen at scale.
