Daniel MacIntyre ’13

PMBA Candidate

“The Simon PMBA combines the flexibility of a part-time program with the immersion of a full-time program. The ability to work while having the opportunity to network with a familiar group of peers was an invaluable experience. I entered the program as a Software Engineer and am now a Senior Financial Analyst at Manning & Napier. The quantity and quality of the topics I have learned made me more than qualified for the position, even with no previous background in the material, and the connections acquired through having a cohort allowed for ample opportunities. I can definitively say that the connections and education gained through the Simon PMBA program was the key factor in opening the path for the career that I wanted, and now have.”

Ryan Albano '13

PMBA Candidate

“I chose the Simon PMBA program because it provides me with an opportunity to pursue an MBA from a highly regarded business school on a part-time basis, while affording me the benefits of the full-time program, such as a structured course progression, inclusion in the Simon community, and networking opportunities. My goal for the future is to pursue a successful career in finance, and I believe that a Simon education will provide me with a solid academic foundation I need to achieve this goal. I met Daniel through the Simon PMBA program, and knew he was looking to transition to finance. When a position opened up at Manning & Napier, I brought it to his attention. We now work together as we continue to pursue our MBAs.”
