Nicolay began his academic journey at St. Mary’s College. Though he soon realized it was not a good fit.
“It was a really small school,” he said. “It almost felt like high school all over again. I tried to make friends and get involved, but it just didn’t feel like a place where I could grow.”
The next semester, Nicolay transferred to Sonoma State University in search of a better fit.
He found the community he had been searching for at St. Mary’s, but he soon realized that Sonoma State did not offer the opportunities he yearned for to achieve his goals.
“Sonoma had amazing people and a great environment,” Nicolay said. “But I didn’t feel like there were enough opportunities there for what I wanted to do.”
As Nicolay began exploring other schools, he came across ASU. With a few friends already enrolled, he felt comfortable making the move to Arizona.
Since his transfer to ASU, Nicolay has been able to dive deeper into the creative opportunities he has been seeking, and now works for the Sun Devil Fitness Complex as a videographer. He creates video content and works with the Educational Outreach and Student Services marketing team to record events and activities.
“I’ve been able to explore my creativity and learn from people with different skill sets. Working with the team has really helped me improve my technical videography skills,” he said.
One of the biggest challenges Nicolay has faced during his college career was adjusting to the scale of ASU. That’s helped him develop stronger time management skills as he balances classes, work opportunities and friendships.
“At a place this big, you have to learn how to balance everything,” he said. “You say ‘yes’ to whatever opportunities present themselves, but you also have to learn how to manage your time and focus on what matters most.”
The most valuable thing Nicolay learned? “Don’t be afraid to change your path,” he said. “Just make sure you’re doing it for the right reasons.”
The majority of employers agree that graduate business education is more important than ever. Problem-solving, communication, and strategic thinking remain the top skills that employers are looking for.
Organizations are looking for professionals who can combine business knowledge with dynamic interpersonal skills. At the same time, many recent graduates and early-career professionals are looking to build business expertise earlier in their careers.
“For early career professionals, building a strong foundation in business through hands-on, applied learning is invaluable," says Marcie LePine, clinical professor and program director for the Online MiM.
"In our program, students engage directly with real-world challenges, developing leadership and analytical capabilities they can immediately translate into meaningful impact in their organizations.”
It’s an ambitious goal, but Peterson, a spring 2026 graduate from San Diego, California, has been building toward it for years. Her passion for both sports and finance began at a young age.
“My grandma worked in finance years ago. When I was little, she would take me to her office, and I remember riding up the escalator from the Starbucks in the basement of her huge office building, looking around and being inspired. I think I always knew I wanted to do finance because of her, and then finding out that it’s needed in sports — I found what I wanted to do.”
Earning three degrees is no small feat — especially as a Moeur Award recipient, an honor recognizing Peterson’s 4.0 GPA across eight consecutive semesters. Beyond academics, she has built an extensive resume: working as a student employee with Sun Devil Athletics, interning with both the Arizona Cardinals and the Arizona Diamondbacks, and leading as president of the Student Alumni Association (SAA).
Peterson joined after attending her first-year turnaround trip, inspired by the organization’s mission of fostering school spirit, pride and traditions. Since then, she has taken on a variety of leadership roles, including Game Day intern and director, vice president and now president in her senior year.
“It’s so cool to be hands-on with a lot of the traditions. People will hear about Echo From the Buttes or Lantern Walk or turnaround trips, and while they may participate, I think it’s great to say you've helped out with these major ASU traditions. It helps you be such a passionate Sun Devil,” she said.
“Getting involved is one of the best things you can do, and it’s also a great way to make friends. Your time here flies by. Say yes, join clubs, get an on-campus job — you don’t want to have any regrets when you’re walking across that stage.”

"Studying at ASU has been not only a significant professional opportunity for me, but also a chance to grow personally and academically," Wongwilaivarin says. "W. P. Carey has pushed me to step outside my comfort zone, adapt to new environments and continuously improve myself."
She is graduating this May with a Master of Science in supply chain management from the W. P. Carey School of Business.
Wongwilaivarin, who holds a bachelor's degree in business administration, logistics, materials and supply chain management from Mae Fah Luang University in Thailand, says that despite the challenges of building a life far from home, she deeply values the opportunity to pursue graduate education in the United States.
"Not many students from my background have access to this path, and I've approached it with a strong sense of commitment and responsibility," she says. "I’m determined to make the most of this experience and carry what I've learned into my career in supply chain management."
One of her favorite classes was SCM 532: Supply Chain Cost/Design Issues with Dale Rogers, ON Semiconductor Professor and director of the Frontier Economies Logistics Lab and the ASU Internet Edge Supply Chain Lab. “It was one of the most impactful classes I’ve had at ASU. One of the biggest lessons he taught me was not to be afraid to speak up in class and participate in discussions. He really pushed us to share our ideas and think critically.”
“I realize how important this skill is — especially in the supply chain field, where communication, decision-making and problem-solving are essential. Whether you're discussing costs, optimizing processes or collaborating with a team, you need to be able to communicate clearly and stand by your ideas.”
"I initially wanted to pursue organic agriculture, but I came to understand that if I wanted to create change at scale, I needed to engage with the systems that enable it. That meant learning how capital flows and how policy shapes outcomes," he says.
That perspective stayed with Hancock-Bacon and guided his academic, professional and personal development throughout his time at Arizona State University.
During his time at W. P. Carey, the Turken Family Outstanding Graduating Senior — who is graduating with dual degrees in finance and business sustainability — founded ASU's Ethnobotanical Club, served as president of the T.W. Lewis Ambassadors, and was involved in Scholars of Finance, the Undergraduate Investment Group, Sustainable Business Students, and the Politics & Leadership Club. His thesis focused on agrivoltaics in Arizona and examined how farmers can remain economically viable amid increasing land-use pressure from energy development.
"Across these efforts, my goal has been consistent: to use business and finance as tools to support communities whose livelihoods are deeply tied to the land," Hancock-Bacon says.
Following graduation, the Arizona native will serve as a Peace Corps sustainable agricultural facilitator before pursuing a career in sustainable development.
"If I have learned anything during my time at ASU, it is that the best paths are not always straight," Hancock-Bacon says. "What matters more is developing the ability to navigate complexity with intention, curiosity and a willingness to build something that does not yet fully exist."
His best piece of advice: “If you feel unsure or uncomfortable, you are probably in the right place. Growth rarely feels clear in the moment, and some of the most valuable paths are the ones that do not make immediate sense. Follow what genuinely interests you, and then use your time to build the skills that allow you to pursue it effectively. Let your instincts guide your direction, but rely on discipline and effort to make that direction real.”

"What truly draws me to development is the complexity of everything that occurs long before a single spade breaks ground," Naudi says. "Very few people appreciate the layers of work, planning, and decision-making that take place behind the scenes, and that is precisely the world I want to be part of."
His search for the right graduate program led him from his native United Kingdom to W. P. Carey and the Master of Real Estate Development (MRED) program. He has since gone on to become a development manager on the luxury One Central Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
The MRED program's strong reputation internationally was a deciding factor. One of Naudi's undergraduate professors recommended W. P. Carey and spoke highly of the program and its director, Mark Stapp. Perhaps the most impactful aspect of the MRED program has been the human side.
"My classmates became far more than peers; they are friends for life and, I have every confidence, future business partners," he says. "In an industry built as much on trust and relationships as it is on technical expertise, the network I built at MRED is perhaps the most valuable thing the program gave me."
The program also shifted how Naudi views development as a whole and how projects fit into the community, which continually influences his current work in Dubai.
"The philosophy around community-led development has shaped how I think about what One Central is truly building: not simply luxury square footage, but something of lasting significance in one of the world's most dynamic cities," he says.
In the future, Naudi knows that the MRED will continue to provide immense value to his career, both through the skills he developed and the strong network he is now a part of.
