My time at NYU’s School of Professional Studies was a game-changer for me, personally and professionally. As a working professional, it was the only grad school I applied to, and it was hands-down the best decision I could’ve made. The real-world expertise of professors and the opportunity to network within the industry and get involved on campus made all the difference. It helped me flawlessly pivot from engineering and luxury beauty into communications and PR, setting the stage for where I am today as a leader in the field. I have a mentee who recently enrolled in the same program, and I am over the moon for him."
