Alumnus speaks to students during annual Husky Leadership Summit

“Listen, learn, and lead. You don’t have to do it in that order. You might not do everything on a given day, but this mantra of these three L’s have been key as I look back over my life in terms of what helped me move from being a first-time college student here at Bloomsburg to being Fitbit’s first head of talent.”

“Many people don’t realize there are different dimensions and arenas in the field of social work, policy being one of them. This (internship with state Rep. Joanna McClinton) was a perfect fit for my interests and aspirations.”

"(I was told) how early I’m doing an internship in my college career will benefit me a lot. I wanted to see what the real-life workforce was like. This internship has helped me figure out what direct line of work I want to do after my time here at Bloomsburg."
