Bridgit Mendler’s glow-up involved a bit more than acting roles, and she continues to be an incredible role model. She’s been in the news recently, for her business and academic achievements. Bridgit just received her JD from Harvard Law! While she’s put her PhD at MIT on hold for now, she’s keeping busy as CEO and co-founder of a satellite data startup, Northwood Space. She also recently shared that she and her husband are raising a 4-year-old son, who they began fostering in 2021 and adopted in late 2022. Congrats on all fronts, Bridgit!
