Marcos Joel Garcia Perez, 34, traveled to Commencement from Puerto Rico. Limited by educational options on the island and unable to regularly travel to a university in the States, Marcos chose an online MBA program with SNHU. Holding a bachelor’s degree in marine biology from a previous educational experience, he hopes for a career in environmental management. Marcos currently works at a wastewater treatment facility, and intends to use his education as a stepping stone toward a career in marine biology.
