Frances Karandy had a background in design, ten years of sales and marketing experience and a desire to bring it all together in a management context. Bentley was the ideal choice. Frances entered both the MBA program and the MS in Human Factors in Information Design (MSHFID) program at the McCallum Graduate School of Business, where she gained both hands-on technical experience as well as broad strategy and leadership skills.

Frances also took full advantage of the technology resources at Bentley, in particular the Design & Usability Center. She graduated with dual degrees and a significant career advantage. Today, as a design researcher with Yahoo!, Frances is pursuing her passion in the world of business...and is succeeding in the business of life.
