What was your first job after college and how did you get it?
In the company at the Dallas Theater Center; I was recommended by a professor and then auditioned.
How did you get your current job?
Contacted a board member that I knew from a previous consulting assignment; applied by letter in response to a job posting using the board member's name as a reference.
What experiences and/or course work in college best prepared you for this job or influenced your decision to do this work?
My undergrad work was not related to my current work. As a grad student, courses in financial analysis, reflective practice (using work experience to develop skills particularly around the dynamics of interpersonal relationships),
economics
Have you attended graduate school or are you considering graduate school? What degree do you have/would you want and why? Are there any limitations to advancement in your field if you do not have a certain graduate degree?
I received an MPA from Wagner. I intermittently entertain going for a doctorate for a variety of reasons -- personal interest and growth, as well as professional opportunities that it might support.
