"The field of economics emboldened my critical thinking skills in many ways,” Nicholas stated in a recent email. “I've performed several specific cost/benefit analyses that have allowed the company I work for to become increasingly agile in their business decisions allowing them to plan long-term with confidence. I have also successfully been able to learn and adapt to challenging roles that extend beyond my immediate tasks that include logistical, financial, and managerial functions. The variety of economic subjects and training has opened my mind and has allowed me to apply economic theory to the workforce with success." (Last Updated 9/13/20)
