Alumni Career Panel Joins Fall i-TEA

This fall, the department’s weekly i-TEA gathering — held Fridays from 2:00–2:45 PM in the Alden Hall Lobby — expanded into a combined alumni social featuring the “Getting to Know Your Gators & Alumni” activity and a career panel.

Panelists

Colton McCurdy ‘17 — Staff Software Engineer, Fastly (moderator)

Matthew Pegula — Staff Engineer, Shopify

Katherine Leyonmark ‘22 — Senior Data Analyst, M&T Bank

Morgan Douglas ‘23 — Vice President, Information Security, BNY

The conversation ranged across diverse career trajectories in technology, practical job-seeking strategies, and what the industry actually looks like day-to-day — straight from alumni who navigated it recently.

i-TEA runs every Friday during the semester. All students, faculty, and staff are welcome — stop by Alden Hall for conversation, connection, and refreshments.
