Alumni Highlight

Kyla Stark

I was born and raised in Fairbanks. After graduating from high school, my goal was to attend college outside of Alaska. I visited several universities and worked with my parents on a budget, and had a hard time signing up for a $120,000 education. I decided to give UAF a try. I took the Introduction to Business course and was hooked!

The School of Management (SOM) is an�incredibly supportive school. As a student,�I felt comfortable swinging by my professors’�offices to ask questions about homework�assignments, receive guidance on job�interviews, or to say hello. The�openness and readiness to help students�is a positive trait that makes SOM one of�the best schools on campus. Through my�involvement with the Student Investment�Fund (SIF) and the Associated Students�of Business, I made great friends and had�amazing opportunities.

�

After graduation, I will be working for�Hitachi Consulting in Seattle, Washington�as a consultant. Hitachi Consulting typically�only hires Ivy League graduates. It is a�testament to the quality of my education�at SOM that I was able to stand on equal�footing with the heavy hitters.�

�

Donor support made my educational�experience possible through scholarships�and backing student groups like SIF. Our�support provides students with memories�and experiences that will shape the rest of�our lives. I hope you will join me as I come�full circle and contribute to the success of�future students.
