Alumni Spotlight

Monica Rodriguez

In the past year, after my graduation at TSoM, I was fortunate to secure a position with the college, where I have the opportunity to not only apply the theoretical knowledge gained during my studies, but also to continually develop and expand my skill sets in Canadian business settings. I have been actively involved in mentoring and supporting current students, sharing my insights and experiences to help them navigate their career paths. Overall, I am grateful for the education and opportunities provided by our institution, and I look forward to continuing to contribute to students’ success in the years to come.
