Alexandra Pomykala

My name is Alexandra Pomykala. I am from Pittsburgh, PA, and I am double majoring in Global Supply Chain Management and Finance in the John Chambers College of Business and Economics. I am a member of the Global Supply Chain Management Club. I chose to major in business because there are many different career paths. I was not sure what career I wanted before I got to college, but after listening to a presentation about supply chain management, I felt that was what was right for me. There are many different careers within supply chain management, and it is continuously growing. I chose to be a peer mentor this fall because I struggled a lot in my first semester of college. Being a peer mentor will allow me to help others that are experiencing the same issues I once experienced whether that includes homesickness or studying for exams. I hope to impact the new WVU students in a positive way by giving them advice on adjusting to college, getting involved, and meeting new people. Overall, I am looking forward to being more involved at WVU while also helping incoming freshmen.
