Alvin Lagu '22

The biggest part is for me was working on important projects that will have a crucial impact on business strategies. I am now more confident in my skills in working with and analyzing data, and how to interpret piles of unused data and make it into useful information. Many companies are struggling to have people who can be a data interpreter, and I feel like it's an opportunity for me to have the skills to support companies who are currently struggling with that.
