Alumni Spotlight: For Simone Talma, Career Mirrors Experience at St. Edward's
Embracing those who are different is one of the most important lessons Simone Talma, '91, MBA, '02, learned while attending St. Edward's University as an undergraduate. It laid the foundation for a career in development and outreach — she now works at the Austin Area Interreligious Ministries — and has kept her closely tied to the university as an active alumni member. Learn more about the impact St. Edward's has had on her goals and achievements.
