Throughout the year, we feature Crandall alumni by sharing their stories. Spotlight stories keep us connected with our alum. It highlights what they have been doing since leaving Crandall and how their time at Crandall has influenced their lives during and after their studies.

Today’s Alumni Spotlight Story features Keely (Sutherland) Moore, who graduated in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management.

What have you been up to since you left Crandall University?

I have been working at Service New Brunswick (SNB) for over 25 years. I started as a Programmer, then became an Information Technology Application Support Analyst. While studying at Crandall University, I was promoted to the role of Senior Business Analyst, and for the past few years, still at SNB, I am a Project Manager in the IT Division.

How did Crandall prepare you for your future?

While studying at Crandall University, I learned many skills, both inside and outside the classroom. I gained the confidence to work more effectively with others, the ability to give presentations, and the trust to believe in my ideas.

Never give up on your dreams, have the confidence that you can do it, never stop learning, and go make your own future. While I was studying at Crandall University, my husband and I were both working full-time, both studying in the evenings, and had 2 children in diapers. We got it done, so can you! Our daughter now attends Crandall University, while our son is graduated from high school this June.
