Lauren Serzanin, CAMD ’16

At Northeastern, I developed a network of friends, teachers, and mentors who encouraged me to grow and learn, and who support me to this day. I also had the unique opportunity to work with two organizations that consistently appear in rankings of the world’s top ten most admired companies.

My co-op advisor, Jacqui Sweeney, had a huge impact on my Northeastern experience. She helped me identify my strengths and interests, and pointed me toward opportunities that best fit what I was looking for. The guidance and encouragement that I received from her, as well as from other advisors I worked with, helped me to succeed in reaching my goals.

What I love most about Northeastern is the quality of education that is provided to each student. Integrating real, hands-on training with classroom discussions led by professors who often are leaders in their own fields made for an exceptional learning experience that prepared me for life beyond college.

I’m very proud to be a Northeastern alum, and will continue to support the university so that future students can have the same great experiences that I did. I want to help ensure that Northeastern remains a trailblazer in education by giving back to a place that has given me so much.
