“The travel seminar has helped me be much more strategic and analytical in my thinking. When I chose to go to Switzerland, I wanted to experience a really robust economy that had bigger companies. I definitely was not expecting to have top-level executives block a whole day on their calendars to be with us and listen to our flash consulting recommendations.”

Valeria Roncallo Ortega, MBA ’23

“Suffolk University’s Sawyer Business School made it effortless for me to immerse myself in a career of state government, politics, campaigns, and public administration. After getting my BS in Government from Suffolk, I realized I could continue on the same path by getting a Master’s in Public Administration from the Business School as well. It was the natural and obvious choice.”

“I had some pretty interesting, life-changing situations that could have deterred me from completing my master’s. But my professors were instrumental in supporting me and pushing me to continue to figure out a way to keep going. My MHA degree I hold very near and dear to me.”

“[Suffolk Accounting Professor Tracey Riley] is probably the most impactful person who has taught or coached me throughout my career. She has always believed in me and gave me the confidence to start my own firm.”
