Why did you choose Daniels

I chose Daniels because I was able to build in prerequisite classes so I could get up to speed and get on track to get a finance degree, despite having never taken a finance class. I also appreciated the flexibility of the curriculum. Coming in with experience in consulting and knowing I was planning to go back to that job, I liked that I would be able to select classes across the various tracks that would serve to build skills to grow my career. I’ve also been living and working in Denver and love it here, so being able to stay in Denver was a huge plus.

Previous Education

BA in economics from Reed College

Pre-Grad School Experience

I graduated from Reed in 2018 and moved to Denver to start working in economic consulting. I spent six years working closely with academic economic and financial experts to do research, data analysis and modeling to support their litigation work.

Post Grad School Goal

Return to my previous employer and continue to move up the ladder in economic consulting.

Hobbies

Pottery, spending time with my labradoodle, puzzles and trying new coffee shops.
