Alexis Ennis

MBA Student: Balancing Work, Studies, & Passion

September 17, 2024

I’m Alexis Ennis, a graduate student working on my Master’s in Business Administration at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). I’ll be graduating in May 2025, and I’m looking forward to finding a career that lets me combine my love for working with people and managing projects.

My Journey So Far

During my time at RIT, I had the opportunity to intern at Paychex, a fantastic HR company. There, I got hands-on experience working with HR professionals and learning all about talent acquisition, training and process improvement. This experience really sparked my passion for the HR field, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me!

Balancing Work and Studies

To support myself through school, I juggle multiple part-time jobs. I work as a server at Texas Roadhouse, where I’ve learned so much about customer service, teamwork, and multitasking. I’m also a nanny and a dog sitter on Rover, caring for little ones and pets. These roles have taught me how to manage my time, handle different situations, and stay organized.

Where I’m Headed

I’m open to exploring many different fields, from Project Management to Employee Relations, Training & Development, and Talent Acquisition! My goal is to find a job that makes me feel excited every day. I live by the following quote:

“Love what you do, and you’ll never work a day in your life”

When I’m Not Working…

When I’m not busy with school or work, you can find me baking, exploring new parks and trails, or getting creative with DIY projects. I’m a bit of a coffee junkie—I love discovering new coffee spots (especially small, local ones). The rest of my time is spent with my two dogs, Buster and Brinley, who keep me smiling (and running) every day.

Let’s Connect!

I’d love to connect with new people, learn more, and explore exciting opportunities! Check out my LinkedIn Profile or click to download my resume.

MBA student

Hell0! My name is Jack Connolly, I am currently pursuing on getting my masters in Business Administration at RIT. When I was an undergraduate I was getting my bachelors in Visual Media. Which is a mix of photography, graphic design, and marketing. I took some business classes while in my undergrad years and really liked the idea of going to take more classes in business.

This year in particular I hope to improve my knowledge of marketing and advertising career since I do believe it complements what I know currently when it comes to the creative side of what I’ve learned in my undergraduate years. I want to be able to be part of the business and creative side of advertising so that I can see how a marketing agency thinks on the business side of things and then later on decides how they want to get creative with their marketing.

Below is a link to my resume and website! Please feel free to click on either one of these links and let me know what you think about them? I would love to hear your feedback while I try to improve both my resume and my website.Your feedback will be much appreciated, since I will be applying to jobs soon once I am done after getting my MBA. To leave feedback, leave a comment below!

Hello!

My name is Maryn Gochuico and I am in my final semester of my New Media Marketing B.S. at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY. I’m originally from Princeton Junction, NJ where I grew up playing soccer and running track.

If I’m not working on class assignments, you can find me running, lifting weights, or playing soccer. I enjoy observing the tangible ways in which I improve in my strength and speed, and hope to one day run a marathon!

My RIT Experience

Besides the numerous times I have had to wipe snow off of my car, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at RIT. I can largely attribute my enjoyable experience to the variety of clubs I have been a part of on campus. I am the President of Women’s Club Soccer, a member of Delta Sigma Pi, and a member of Women in Business. Many of my close friendships were made after joining these organizations.

I have also completed an IT Business Analyst co-op with Wegmans Food Markets and an Operations internship with Santander Consumer USA.

Post Graduation Plans

I am eagerly awaiting graduation so I can begin my career with Oracle NetSuite as a Business Development Representative in Austin, TX!

Daniel Lemaster – Ad Photography and Business Administration

Post author By rajsmurthy
Post date September 14, 2021

Hello! My name is Daniel Lemaster. Being raised in Lancaster, PA I grew up around many small businesses including my own family’s, which got me into the idea of owning and operating my own business early in life. Along with this, being from such a small-town area there wasn’t a lot for me to do, and when I was around 14, I started to get into photography as a hobby to pass time and quickly grew in love with it. It is these conditions that set me down the path that I am on today.

In 2021 I received my BFA in Photographic and Imaging Arts with a specialization in Advertising Photography, along with a minor in advertising and public relations, and business administration. Currently, I am pursuing my MBA with a planned graduation of 2022.

My plan is to work towards becoming a Serial Entrepreneur. Having a love and passion for both business and the arts positions me well to balance creativity and structure to come up with new business ideas and to operate them well.
