Graduating Year: 2023

Education: Major in Computer Information Technology and Minor in Women's and Gender Studies

鈥淭he courses reinforced the notion that no gender issues can be tackled unless looked at through an intersectional lens. I definitely see myself using what I have learned from my WGS minor in my future career because I refuse to be in a space where every demographic isn鈥檛 properly represented and acknowledged. My four years at NKU have helped me become a better ally not only for people in my community but for others.鈥

Career: Working towards a career in technology

There is nothing more important in a workplace than diversity and inclusivity. As a Latina, representation was something that I didn鈥檛 get to experience much growing up, and I wanted to learn how I could be the change I wished to see.
