How did your MATH/STAT degree prepare you for your career?

In the process of earning my degree I was taught how to eliminate operational variance and calculate managing risk probabilities in strategic decision points. 

How has a degree from Loyola impacted your career?

 My degree in science and math from Loyola provided a differentiator in interviews as well as higher analytical skills.

Did you get a graduate degree? Do you think a graduate degree is necessary for your specific job?

Yes, I did receive a Master's in Health Administration from Cornell Univeristy. While a graduate degree is not necessary for my specific job, it played a key role in accessing my network. At the end of the day, connection to people is what elevates roles and opportunities.

How do you use math in your day-to-day work?

Everything in the world can be explained with math, but you have to build the right equation and reduce the variance.

What were your favorite math classes at Loyola? Which classes helped prepare you most for your career?

My favorite math classes prepared me most for my career. That class was Dr. Doty's Linear Algebra class.

What advice would you give students pondering a minor or major in MATH/STAT?

Being a math major is unique in the market, and you will be amazed at how much more understanding you have of the world when you've taken more math than 99% of the rest of the world. Being able to do analytics may seem common, but it truly isn't when you are in the professional world.
