"Played Teddy on Good Luck Charlie" is just one line in overachiever Bridgit Mendler's resume. ⁠
⁠
The former Disney darling and certified-platinum singer announced this week that her space startup Northwood Space raised $6.3 million in seed funding from a16z and others.⁠
⁠
Now the company's CEO, which she says is "building a data highway between earth and space," Mendler wants to mass-produce ground stations (the circular antennas that communicate with satellites) to make it easier for space companies to rent them, she told CNBC.⁠
⁠
The venture is just the latest addition to her stacked LinkedIn profile, which features: a Harvard Law JD, time as the Harvard Space Law Society co-president, a PhD from MIT, a Master's from MIT, and a position with the FCC's satellite division.⁠
