Ava McCoy Is Building a Career in Public - One Story, Sideline and Spreadsheet at a Time
The Harvard junior moves between a $13 million student-run business, the Crimson sports desk, ESPN+ sidelines and nonfiction film. Her useful trick is not choosing one lane - it is learning what each lane can teach the others.
Harvard Student Agencies
Harvard Student Agencies (HSA) is the largest student-run company in the world. Founded at Harvard in 1957 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, it employs more than 900 Harvard undergraduates each year across roughly a dozen businesses - from The Harvard Shop and Trademark Tours to Let's Go travel guides, HSA Tutoring, GroupGear custom apparel, and Campus Insights user research. Students run every division as managers, gaining hands-on business experience while earning wages that help offset the cost of a Harvard education.
