Tech 101, Women in Technology, shaped my college experience and gave me a support system where I could connect with others that were like me.

Business Analyst for Cisco

What are your Job duties?

Business Analyst for the Cisco Engineering and Supply Chain Team within the IT organization. I will work closely with engineers and other team members to improve processes within the department.

Who would you like to thank as you finish your time at Purdue and start your career?

I would like to thank Ms. Antonia Munguia.  From the summer before freshman year, up until the last day of senior year, she pushed me, encouraged me, and helped me through this journey of college.  She was always there to provide me with academic, work, and life advice and is an integral part within the Polytechnic Institute.

If you had a favorite class, project, experience, or professor, what/who was it, and why?

I would say that my favorite class dated back to my freshman year.  The Tech 101, Women in Technology: Exploring the Possibilities class shaped my college experience and gave me a support system.  Being in a college that was only 20% female, I was a bit out of my comfort zone at first.  This class gave me a support system where I could connect with others that were like me, that took the same classes as me, and ultimately, ensured that I did not feel lost in my large freshman classes.
