Undergraduate Institution and major: Penn State University, Management Information Systems with a minor in International Business 

Hometown: Drexel Hill, PA

Work Experience: I have been working as an Application Analyst for almost three years at Universal Health Services in the Information Systems Department. I have gained a lot of exposure to the healthcare industry, but I focus specifically on the company’s financial data.   

Why did you choose the Villanova: I chose the Villanova MSBA program because of the flexibility of online classes but also because of the strong network that Villanova provides. I was looking for a program that would expose me to a wide range of technologies but also help me understand how they can be applicable in a business setting. Villanova’s MSBA  also provides the opportunity to collaborate and network with peers who are at different stages of their careers.  

Goals or plans for a career after graduation from Villanova: This program has allowed me to apply my coursework to my projects at work and I plan to continue to do so upon graduating. I am hoping to further advance in the data analytics field by using the technologies I have been able to learn so far and look to continue to apply them wherever I may end up in the future.
