In the summer of 2011, Nadine Narolsky graduated from Hudson Valley Community College. However, her academic journey was not yet complete as only a few months later she put her thinking cap back on to become a student at the prestigious University at Albany. Since she had already gotten an Associate’s degree in Business from her previous education, it was natural for Nadine Narolsky to seek out a Bachelor’s degree in Economics with a Business minor.

Even though Nadine Narolsky made sure to put all of her energy towards her courses, she still had energy for extracurricular activities. She joined Albany Business Leaders Emerging, or ABLE, for short. This academic club allowed students to study industry professionals with success stories that Nadine Narolsky hoped to share one day. ABLE also gave Nadine Narolsky the chance to participate in community service.

Nadine Narolsky describes herself by saying, “I am an outgoing person who puts my best effort into everything I do.” This is completely self-evident in her academic career as she ensured her success in both her scholastic and extracurricular endeavors. Beyond her classes and her clubs, Nadine Narolsky pushed herself to work 26 hours a week while maintaining an outstanding GPA. Then on May 19 of 2013, Nadine Narolsky graduated from the University at Albany. That will not stop Nadine Narolsky, however, as she begins the process of obtaining an MBA.
