Freshman year roommates to business partners!
Meet Madison & Maryn, two friends who understand how challenging it can be to find the perfect roommate, especially when you're coming from out of state. As freshmen, they both faced this tough task and were lucky enough to find each other. However, they knew not everyone has it that easy.
Seeing a need and an opportunity.
Madison and Maryn decided to create a space where new college students could easily connect, meet potential roommates, and make friends even before stepping foot on campus. Four years ago, Collegemate was born.
