Building Momentum with Intention
Abenya supports leaders, founders, and emerging innovators in taking clear, aligned action that strengthens capacity over time.
“Dr. Alexis Peña was my PI and mentor for the Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship at Argonne National Laboratory, and over the past two years she has been an integral part of my development, always striving to “lift while she climbs.” Her mentorship shaped not only my growth as a researcher, but also my confidence and sense of who I am becoming, both professionally and personally.”
— Undergraduate Researcher
“Over the last 10 months, I’ve been following Alexis’ advice and it has truly changed how I move through my work, helping me focus on what matters and build step by step toward a sustainable MVP. With her guidance, I feel more grounded, strategic, and in a completely different place than when we first met.”
— Founder
“Working with Alexis during a customer discovery program was incredibly valuable; she listens deeply, understands complex ventures quickly, and offers feedback that is both honest and steadying. Her guidance sharpened my thinking, strengthened my approach, and made a real difference in my journey as a founder.”
