Thanks to Fairleigh Dickinson, I was able to land my dream job in the pharmaceutical industry, and I've been there for four years, and I'm incredibly happy and grateful. I would say that one of the best parts about coming to FDU is all of the affiliations with different companies. You have many options that you can choose from.

Greatest benefit for me for attending FDU was the real world education that I received here. FDU provided me with the fundamentals to be an entrepreneur and provided me the confidence to go out there and to be successful. At FDU, my professors were instrumental for the success that I found in my career. They always took the time to get to know me and all the other students, so I always felt valued, so I would always go to them for all the mentorship and all the advice that I needed.

And it really helped me to become what I am today. FDU, three year clinical program helped me in the hospital post graduation. Also, it really helped with networking. It gave me an extra year to get acclimated to the hospitals, to getting to know the staff, to getting to know the doctors and nurses that helped me post graduation. One of my favorite things about FDU is that it is a place where you can be yourself, like there's something for everyone here, and you can really explore and develop and find who you really are in this environment.

Here at Fairleigh Dickinson, we have tons of professors that are industry professionals who are more than willing to provide professional insights into the working world, so that when we students step out into it, we are more than prepared to encounter all that it has to offer. While being a student here, I obtained three internships. I obtained all three through the annual Internship and Career Fair here at FDU, the experience that I've gained through those internships led me into the career that I am in today.

Going through college, my favorite classes were both tax and audit, and I found that my job as a tax operations analyst really excites me, because I can connect what I've learned in the classroom to what I do every day working for the bank at FDU, I seized the moment and it changed my world.
