“I like working behind the scenes and having a direct hand in what students see on campus.”
Achaetey worked on research as a part of Professor Alexi Arango's lab. She helps manufacture solar cells. She started working in the lab in summer 2015, and within the few months from the beginning of summer to fall, she has already designed a piece of equipment and wrote a standard working procedure for the Arango lab!
I was encouraged and challenged to pursue those things that I am truly passionate about with rigor and discipline.
Take math courses and gaining some research experience, whether it is through an internship with a professor or writing a thesis.
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.
Constant interaction with the department provides a strong sense of community.
