Asked about the biggest lesson he learned from studying business, he said, "Knowledge about specific topics is undeniably important in any major, but I have realized that there are foundational skills that cut across every major that aren’t necessarily taught in textbooks. In my experience, building your professional reputation, through the way that you conduct yourself, is just as important as gaining knowledge and understanding content. As professionals, we need to focus on our character to build trust, maintain integrity, and lead authentically. It is one’s reputation and character that can pave the way to relationships that produce results and solve problems."
"Levi has inspired me to be a better leader and a better teacher by setting an example for all of us. He strives for excellence in everything he dedicates himself to doing, and he represents the best of who we are," professor Megan Gerhardt said.
After graduation, Grimm will work at Deloitte Consulting as a Business Technology Solutions Analyst.
