BEACONconnect Brings the UMass Boston Community Together
“ After connecting on BEACONconnect, Idizinho and I met for coffee to discuss our careers and he has become a helpful mentor. I am grateful that BEACONconnect exists to connect professionals who have UMass Boston in common.” –Tamira Acce ’20, associate, Grand Circle Corporation
“ I enjoyed meeting Tamira and look forward to connecting with more fellow alumni on BEACONconnect. I encourage others to use the site to seek out career advice or to offer their expertise. Asking for help can sometimes be intimidating, but BEACONconnect makes it easy. I will continue to use the platform to connect with classmates, network, find candidates, and be a resource for students and alumni. Drop me a note!” –Idizinho Vaz ’19, partner, NYLIFE Securities
