“I’ve always had a hard time fitting into any single box,” stated Ayala, actively adding ‘Multifaceted’ as a skill on their LinkedIn profile. “Brown’s interdisciplinary approach between disciplines allows me to combine my approaches to different disciplines, synergistically combining them at their crossroads in ways a standard concentration couldn’t dream of.”

“Call me crazy, but I’m thinking about adding a fourth thing too,” Ayala reported while scrolling through Brown’s list of concentrations. “I’m excited to see the opportunities I can unlock with my variety of skills and to explore the real change I can bring about. Some people say when one door closes another one opens, but I say keep them all open!”

At press time, Ayala confirmed reports that they would be interning at McKinsey as a consultant.
