What he gained from a liberal arts education: “The business world is moving at a break-neck pace, and a liberal arts education teaches you to learn and adapt. I work with partners and customers from around the globe, and having a background in history allows me to apply more context in business and cultural practices. My goal is always to act neighborly toward my clients and partners, and the first step of that is to understand someone else’s perspective and background. Yes, learning hard skills and technology is important, especially to get your first few jobs, but emotional intelligence and creativity are how you thrive in your career. UVM gave me a great balance of both.”
