Hi, my name is Owen Laffey, I am a motivated and resourceful team player with exceptional attention to detail seeking to utilize my communication and leadership skills in a marketing capacity. Over the past four years, I had the privilege of being part of the Men’s Lacrosse team at Nazareth University. This was an amazing experience that gave me countless life lessons while pushing me to learn and grow as an athlete and as a person.

My lacrosse career has now come to an end, and I will be pursuing my MBA at RIT starting this fall. I am enthusiastic about channeling this passion and drive into the professional world and continuing my journey of personal and career development

Philip Rottkamp

Hello! My name is Philip Rottkamp, and I am an MBA student at Rochester Institute of Technology. I earned my undergraduate degree in Management Information Systems from RIT in May 2023 with a GPA of 3.98. I am a proud recipient of several awards as an undergraduate student, including Dean’s List for all 8 semesters attended, induction into the Beta Gamma Sigma International Business Honor Society, and the Outstanding Undergraduate Scholar Award, which is given to the top 1% of undergraduate students who achieve academic excellence while also giving back to the community.

I have been active in RIT’s community through my work with New Student Orientation as an Orientation Leader (2020, 2022) and Orientation Supervisor (2023), and through my work as President of the RIT Fighting Game Community (2021 – 2023). Both experiences have not only further engaged me into the greater RIT community, but have built up my leadership skills and creative thinking skills in ways that many academic classes cannot.

I have been working with my local utilities company, Central Hudson Gas & Electric Co., since June 2022 as an IT Intern. There, I have been using my technical skills to design and build Key Performance Indicator (KPI) dashboards for different departments to help company leaders get the most up to date information fast in an organized manner. Alongside being the lead developer for the Human Resources KPI dashboard, I have also been co-managing the project surrounding the HR dashboard to help ensure all deliverables are complete, resources are allocated appropriately, and to make sure time, cost, and scope are on track.
