Rapid Fire
What did you want to be at 15, and how close did you get?
I dreamed of studying abroad and seeing the world. I came pretty close. I’ve had the opportunity to build an international perspective through my education, career, and experiences with people from different cultures.
What did you do prior to joining NEIA that has nothing to do with education?
My earlier professional experience spans finance, operations, audit, and strategic planning across the financial services and automotive industries.
