Ana Ortiz, a fourth year undergraduate at Georgia Tech's Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) made her TV debut this week on CareerTV. She was highlighted as an ambitious Yellow Jacket balancing her industrial engineering course load, homework, a social life, and her duties as a student ambassador.
Ortiz's segment was sent out to 355 college campuses and will be aired on Fox Business in April. CareerTV, a national syndicated television program, is the first global television programmer and interactive website designed to help college students and young professionals develop long-lasting, successful careers.
