Andrew Cordova Class of 2011<br />

Global Risk Management, San Francisco<br />

Bachelor’s Degree, History, Earned Distinction in Major, Yale University<br />

“I’ve always appreciated that <strong>Prep</strong> taught me how to think: What does the<br />

information tell us? What questions can I ask? How does it all fit together?<br />

The skills I learned at <strong>Prep</strong> were the foundation for my success in college, and<br />

they continue to benefit me professionally, working for a technology company<br />

operating on a global scale.”<br />

Ruquaya Quraishi Class of 2012<br />

Clinical Pharmacy Resident, Children’s Hospital of Orange County<br />

Pharm. D., University of New Mexico<br />

“Securing a residency in California as an out-of-state candidate was a challenge.<br />

I believe that I was able to match at a residency program that only had two<br />

positions because <strong>Prep</strong> equipped me with an excellent foundation in leadership,<br />

teamwork, and dedication. The thing I miss most about <strong>Prep</strong> are the amazing<br />

teachers who cared so much about my growth while I was a student there;<br />

I couldn’t have accomplished the things I have today if it wasn’t for them.”<br />

Mandie Harms Class of 2004<br />

Stage Manager, Cirque du Soleil, Las Vegas<br />

BS, Finance and Marketing, Oklahoma City University<br />

“Because <strong>Prep</strong> supports student-led exploration, I was able to build the skills<br />

necessary to create my career path. I learned how to recognize my own interests,<br />

how to develop and pursue them, and how to find the mentors and support<br />

I need to achieve my goals. I was taught the fundamentals of independent<br />

learning and self-structured success while my own drive and ambitions were<br />

bolstered by the <strong>Prep</strong> culture.”<br />
