Conquering heaven is the romantic hope of many actors but, in the case of Bridgit Mendlerthis was not hyperbole. His name may not mean much to you, although two words will help you recover your memory: Disney Channel. The animated mouse subsidiary has launched careers such as Anne Hathaway, Zac Efron and Selena Gomez. Bridgit Mendler’s was a full-fledged space race.
When their daughter was 11, Mendler’s parents found her an agent. He found his first role in General Hospital and, in 2007, he came very close to diving into Disney Channel, but Demi Lovato took away the leading role of Sunny, among stars. An embarrassing job, alongside Lindsay Lohan, put her in the orbit of Disney, which finally placed her in Good luck, Charlie..
For four seasons, Bridgit Mendler flirted with a conventional star biography: a couple of series under the umbrella of Disney Channelthen just Disney and, later, the world. It wasn’t like that. We tell you how Bridgit Mendler, in the last ten years, has transformed into the astronomical genius that the world needs.
What happened to Bridgit Mendler?
Although he has continued acting (his latest series, Merry Christmas and stuffis from 2019), everything changed for Bridgit Mendler when she entered university. Between books, the actress and singer discovered that she had an unusual talent.
After studying an Anthropology degree at the University of California, Mendler entered higher education with a PhD from the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In order not to waste time, he also enrolled in Harvard Law School.
His years at the top of the academic pyramid were not in vain. In 2023, Mendler founded a company called Northwood Spacededicated to the design of satellite connections. In a short time, Northwood Space has grown beyond expectations. According to Mendler, teleports (ground stations) are obsolete and need new technology to overcome their expiration date. Northwood Space aims to solve this problem.
As he told in an interview with CNBC, many companies have contacted Mendler’s company. With a reputational capital much less eroded than that of Elon Musk and a weight in the technology industry that grows day by day, are we facing the first Disney girl to conquer the world?
