It’s extremely important to build a network of people that you trust and who trust you. Having the initiative to step up and do something beyond your role is the best way to move forward.
Once I started reaching out to people on other teams and in my classes, that’s what really made my time here amazing.
The ability to manage my time and be able to work with others are two of the key skills I was able to take from my school environment and apply to my work life.
At Purdue Northwest, the class sizes are small enough that I was able to get to know my professors. They are willing to invest in you, in your success—you’re not just a number to them.
