The math department gave a lot of support in me taking actuarial exams while still in college, which helped give me a great head start in my career and showed me how to study for all of the exams I would eventually take. Outside of just my primary degree, the overall liberal arts education that Butler provided exposed me to many different topics and many different people from all walks of life. This has helped me in more of the soft skills and networking side of my career, which has become even more and more important as I&#8217;ve advanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-larger-font-size\" id=\"h-what-advice-would-you-give-to-current-students-to-help-them-prepare-for-their-careers-0\">What advice would you give to current students to help them prepare for their careers?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I would encourage them to be as open as the can to trying completely new things and challenging themselves. Everyone talks about how college is a time to try so many things to find out who you are and what you want to do in life. That is absolutely true, but it doesn&#8217;t stop when you graduate. The first job you get will almost certainly not be your job forever, and you may discover that it might not even be in the right industry. Go try things you think you will like, try some things you aren&#8217;t sure if you will like, and keep learning about yourself and what you like to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-larger-font-size\" id=\"h-what-is-a-great-memory-you-have-from-your-time-at-butler-0\">What is a great memory you have from your time at Butler?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Rushing the basketball court after Butler beat Villanova when they were one of the best teams in the country.
