ABINGTON, Pa. — Melissa Aguilar shows no signs of slowing down since she graduated from Penn State Abington in 2016.
After earning her bachelor’s degree from Abington in psychological and social sciences with a minor in women’s studies, Aguilar immediately enrolled in graduate school at Columbia University in New York City. She plans to complete her master’s degree in social-organizational psychology from Columbia in May following a jam-packed two years in the Big Apple.
During her first year at Columbia, Aguilar worked at NBCUniversal at the iconic 30 Rockefeller Plaza building.
“I worked in executive search, where we find and recruit executive talent across all the businesses in NBCUniversal from vice president level and above. It was a great learning experience,” the onetime Abington THON chair said.
