Academic & Continuing Education
Cultivating a future through the achievement of actionable knowledge
Throughout his career as a marketing communications strategist, Andres Goyanes has set his sights on his professional and academic development to complement an exciting career.
The road to completing multiple degrees was never easy, with competing demands as he juggled a profession, volunteering, and family life. However, the rewards of cultivating a growth mindset have helped Andres remain motivated to learn more through curiosity and critical thinking.
As of 2023, Andres is in the final stretch of his Ph.D. coursework ahead of transitioning to finalizing his research and defending his dissertation. Without question, every sacrifice made—from spending evenings reading scholarly articles to sequestering himself to write academic papers during the weekend—has been worth the rewards ahead.
