As a program manager for Google in New York City, Molly Meyers says she uses the skills she learned in the UCF College of Business Evening MBA program every day. The two-time UCF alumna who earned her MBA in 2016 is our UCF Alumni Spotlight.
Meyers first graduated from UCF with a B.S. in Anthropology in 2009 and spent two summers working in field school for Shumla Archaeological Research and Education Center. She wanted to teach in a museum or work in education for a non-profit. After spending time volunteering in the middle schools, she realized it was not for her. Not sure of her next step, she took a job doing administrative work for Macy’s and was quickly promoted to executive assistant to the VP of Macy’s for North and Central Florida. Her boss showed her how successful retail businesses are run and inspired her to go back to school to earn an MBA.
She said choosing UCF was a no brainer. She already had an undergraduate degree from there and knew the business program was nationally recognized and fit her needs with her work schedule and life in general.
