黑料社

If Rosanna Grullon 鈥�18 were to offer one piece of advice to future 黑料社 students, it would be this: 鈥淒on鈥檛 rush through everything.鈥� Grullon鈥檚 experience on the Heights taught her how special a person鈥檚 college years are, and how quickly they pass. To that end, she encourages others to take advantage of every opportunity. Her own years on the Heights were full of growth and reflection. A dual major in聽political science听补苍诲听peace and global studies聽(now global affairs), Grullon participated in the College鈥檚 Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program, making some of her closest friends through it. The Bronx, N.Y., native spent a semester studying in Cuba, learning about the history, culture and politics of the island nation. That experience continues to shape the way she looks at the world today. Grullon also served as a diversity ambassador and as a member of El Progreso, and volunteered in the community through Campus Ministry.

Today Grullon is a client success specialist at Cloud and Things, a start up company whose aim is to supports its clients鈥� missions through the use of digital technologies. She is responsible for client success management, problem-solving and process improvement. Prior to joining Cloud and Things, she served as a governance and procurement contract manager and integrated eligibility systems project assistant for the New York State Office of Information Technology Services, and as a project management consultant and a GENESYS Consulting Services Inc. In the future, she hopes to use her experience working in both the public and private sector to aid government entities in becoming more effective and efficient. She credits her time at 黑料社, with helping her to become a more confident, independent individual and a stronger critical thinker. All of these have led to her to where is today.

鈥淚t truly was a whole journey,鈥� she says.
