Krista Strzeszkowski

I graduated from Purdue university with a degree in psychology, with an emphasis on abnormal psychology, and a certificate in collaborative leadership, with an emphasis on multicultural communication, compassion, and empathy. I pursued a full-time role as a technical analyst after being an intern throughout college, but the industry is now rocky and overly competitive, so with help from my public defender sister I’ve been trying to pivot careers. I currently work as a full-time technical analyst at Montgomery County government in Maryland and as a part-time case assistant. During my time in tech I’ve learned valuable skills like managing multiple projects and coworkers, summarizing/analyzing project requirements, advocating for clients, and providing exceptional customer service. My experience in different industries (taxes, healthcare, banking, etc.) helps me quickly adapt to new situations and environments.
