I support Beta Alpha Psi because I love helping students navigate starting their careers! It’s extremely rewarding to help students explore different avenues and possibilities as they land positions they are genuinely excited about. It’s an exciting time to join the work force – there are so many different career paths and opportunities to pursue. By attending local and Mid-Year meetings, I hope to continue being a resource for students as they discover the working world.
