Beaver Reflections:
I graduated from Beaver in 2015 and I had a great time there. It was really a second home for me in many senses as I was a lifer, my mom teaches there, and both of my siblings attended the school. It was about as much of a community as you could find. I enjoyed my time there immensely and it was very influential on who I am today.

What is #happeningnow in your life:
Work has been the dominant piece of my life for the past year. I have been working at Cambridge Associates, an investing and consulting firm in Boston, and I love being there. It is challenging and fast-paced but has put me on a good track. It has also pushed me to continue developing my critical thinking and analysis skills. Obviously, in these times I have been working from home which was honestly not a huge adjustment as much of my work is online anyway.

“Prior to this pandemic, a colleague left for a new job and I was thrust into somewhat of a bigger position. However, being able to think critically and think on my feet was so helpful, which I can really attribute to Beaver.”

Advice to current Beaver students:
Try to find something you are interested in and start thinking critically about it. Use these crazy times to find a passion and really try to dive into it. However, always keep an open mindset and do not be afraid to try new things.
