Technology is the future, and it’s something I’ve always been interested in. The Technology track in Synchrony’s BLP was a great starting point for my career. It gave me a wide range of experiences across technology through three diverse roles in two years.

I also saw how Synchrony invests in my growth and trusts me to be a future leader of the company. Just two months after starting, I presented to the CIO on one of her projects, and I’ve had numerous other opportunities to interact with leadership. These experiences prepared me to step right into a role as a Digital Scrum Master for our Native Apps team immediately following the BLP.

I work at our headquarters in Stamford, CT, but throughout my experiences, I’ve traveled to other Synchrony locations. These have been great trips where I’ve gotten to meet BLPs and see our operations around the country.

Being an engineering major, I never thought about working in finance. But, I went to a campus event with free pizza, and here I am!

Seriously, Synchrony is an exciting place to work—I get to use my technical skills, work with great people, and our leadership invests in us and gives us real responsibility for key initiatives.

What is also really unique about the BLP is the variety of experiences I had in just two years. I grew in ways I didn’t know possible. Each experience was challenging, interesting, and prepared me for my current role as a Solutions Architect for multiple premier consumer retailers.

I work at our headquarters in Stamford, CT but occasionally get to travel to other Synchrony locations for projects, which is great because I get to see other BLP participants around the country.
