Kasey Mathews – MBA Candidate

Who I Am

Kasey Mathews is an MBA student at RIT’s Saunders College of Business. With concentrations in both Marketing and Public Policy, he is dedicated to ensuring clear and concise communication.

Kasey is passionate about the work he does, and stresses the importance of collaboration, especially across various disciplines. Through both his undergraduate and graduate studies at RIT, he has been heavily involved in multiple projects and organizations in every part of the university experience.

What I Do

Through Reporter — RIT’s only fully student-run magazine — Kasey has consistently published journalistic content with real impact to the RIT community, whether they be students, faculty, staff or alumni. He has risen to become the Editor in Chief of the organization, managing a 100-person staff and a budget in excess of $150,000.

Kasey also joined the RIT Orientation program in Fall 2016, welcoming new students to RIT every year. In Fall 2020, Kasey took on a leadership role within the program, coordinating the schedule and managing all hiring, training and other personnel management responsibilities. Along with a team of five other coordinators, he achieved a smooth transition for new students into their new lives at RIT, ensuring comfort, support and education despite operating within the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a brother of Delta Sigma Pi — one of the largest, co-ed professional business fraternities in the nation — Kasey has gained valuable leadership skills while continually giving back to the student business community and the greater Rochester community nearby.

Kasey has also been involved in other capacities. He holds a Graduate Assistantship in the university’s LGBT Center, has served as a peer mentor within Saunders College for three years, was awarded entry into the Saunders Graduate Fellowship that connected him with industry mentors in Toshiba and 2logical as well as working with the Study Abroad Office to promote the accessibility and developmental experiences of study abroad.

With passions for cross-cultural communication and marketing policy, Kasey is ready to take on any project that deals heavily in communications, from Government Relations to Social Media Advertising.
