About Dezerae Mendoza

I am a QuestBridge Match Scholar and CEDAR SoCal Scholar at Smith College, studying Quantitative Economics and Psychology. I focus on management consulting, corporate strategy, and organizational leadership. I help teams solve problems using data and clear communication.As a student leader, I have managed cross-functional teams and led high-impact programs. I built and ran a 70+ member student organization, managed an 11-member executive board, and organized 15+ events each year. In publicity and outreach roles, I launched 20+ marketing campaigns, including the Pa’lante conference campaign, which increased attendance by 40%, and grew social media engagement by 200% through short-form video and targeted outreach.I combine analytical expertise with leadership and collaboration skills. I turn data into practical strategies, brief stakeholders clearly, and coach teams to execute projects successfully. I focus on roles where I can apply financial and data analysis, manage projects, and lead organizational initiatives, such as management consulting, business strategy, or corporate operations.If you want a curious, disciplined problem-solver who drives results with both data and strong team leadership, let’s connect. I actively seek internships and early-career opportunities in consulting, corporate strategy, and operations.Skills: Financial Modeling, Excel, R, Data Analysis, Google Analytics, Project Management, Strategic Communications, Social Media Strategy, Content Creation, Event Planning, Stakeholder Engagement, Public Speaking, Leadership, Market Research, Business Analysis, Change ManagementContact: d•••••••@smith.edu
