My passion for music, storytelling, and authentic connection has continued to be a grounding
In the theater department, I explored my artistry, gained confidence in my storytelling abilities and expanded my artistic world view.
I built the skills in my scientific training to help my team synthesize information and advise senior management on strategic priorities.
I have been lucky enough through my time at Mount Holyoke to experience a variety of research and internship experiences.
Professors at MHC showed me it was possible to balance career and family.
I was able to acquire additional knowledge and research material in the subject of Native American culture and history.
"10+ years after my first drawing class, I am a professional designer and strategist working in an industry I didn’t even know existed."
Through my year abroad, I developed the language capacity to research German/Polish relations since WWII and defend an honors thesis.
As a student at MHC, I had gained not only the foundations of my academic studies but I had the confidence and poise to approach these people and make valuable connections.
As an important actor for effective cultural preservation, I became more critical of "non-invasive" anthropological methods.
