 <\/p>\n

1. In one sentence, what does your job entail? <\/b><\/p>\n

I help business managers and owners prioritize and delegate administrative and operational tasks so they have more energy to focus on\u00a0extending influence, building relationships and capturing new business.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. What planned and unplanned events connected you to your industry and your first employer after Holy Cross? How did you learn\/decide it was a good fit for you? <\/b><\/p>\n

Seeking a career in media, I interned for a maritime publisher and conference\u00a0organizer during my summers as a Holy Cross student. After graduating, I was hired full-time. Working within a small team serving a global audience taught me to become self-reliant and learn where and whom to turn to for information and support. I’ve\u00a0carried these lessons with me into subsequent roles and in now starting my own company.<\/p>\n

3. What were you involved in when you were on campus?<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>I wrote for the campus newspaper, worked stage crew for Alternative College Theatre, and volunteered through Holy Cross Cares Day and Student Programs for Urban Development.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

4. What was your major and how did it affect your career decisions? <\/b><\/p>\n

I completed a dual major in economics and sociology, framing my thinking about my individual role within the job market and community at the macrolevel. This combination also sparked my curiosity for the social sciences, inspiring me to pursue a graduate degree in Applied Quantitative Research and directly build upon my foundational learning at Holy Cross.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

5. What are one or two skills that you developed at Holy Cross that you use in your work?<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>The research and writing abilities I fostered as a Holy Cross have helped me navigate career transitions, market upheaval and thinking through what I want from my career and life beyond work.<\/p>\n

6. What advice do you have for students on campus today? <\/b><\/p>\n

Take advantage of all the information you have available. From career sites like Glassdoor and Indeed, to online learning sites like EdX and Coursera,\u00a0there are so many platforms to enrich the Holy Cross curriculum that didn’t exist at their scale today when I was a student. Use these as roapmaps to bridge gaps between your experience now and where you see yourself headed post-HC. Also, get to know Maura Sweeney in the Alumni Career Development Office – She’s a great resource you’ll have to guide you when you graduate!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
