We catch up with Emilia Ruzicka '21, currently a data reporter at Stacker, who shares the ins and outs of forging a path in an emerging field of work. They also share how networking has played a key role for them and what's on their horizon in the world of data visualization.
We’re excited to share our conversation with John Goncalves, class of 2013 and 2015 graduate of the MAT program. An educator and Councilman of Ward 1 in Providence, John talks about the best ways to prepare for the role of “teacher.” And his best advice for students looking for a career in public service? Get involved and take that first step towards your goal by doing something—big or small. That first step can often set you on a path of impactful work.
Sarah catches up with Azeez Adeyemi '21, who currently works for Tradeweb in New York. Azeez reflects on making the shift from full-time student to full-time employee, and what success and progress look like outside of the Brown bubble.
We chat with Jonathan Groff '83, a TV writer and producer. As a longtime supporter of BrownConnect, Jonathan has advised countless students over the years, and for that we thank him. His story shows that there is no “one way” to get to our respective destinations, and listening to yourself and doing what feels organic to you is a valuable practice as you make your way there.
Hear from alumna Bianca Duah '16 about her path from Brown to medical school at The University of Rochester School of Medicine. She tells us all about the importance of living in your season and taking your time to reach your goals in a way that is authentic to you.
We catch up with Emily Adams '18, a transfer student who squeezed the most out of her time at Brown, and launched her career as a screenwriter amidst the pandemic. We talk about the benefits of self-discipline, taking calculated risks, and staying true to yourself (even if that means making some tough choices along the way).
We chat with 2013 grad Aimee Lucido, a Computer Science and Literary Arts concentrator turned author. She explains how her career path zigzagged from software engineering to becoming an author, and how you can make a career out of many intersecting talents and interests.
Join us as we chat with Andrew Gonzales, a 2016 alum and recent Harvard Law School graduate. What paths took him to his current role as a first-year associate and how has networking made the difference?
Soyoon Kim '19 and Julio Reyes '12 talk about finding their career paths unexpectedly leading them back to Brown.
Julia Kirschenbaum '19 talks about how she dealt with the often daunting and sometimes frustrating summer post-grad, and the expectations and realities of her first job.
