Behrend alumna Dr. Pamela (Sumah) Gibbs was the guest speaker at this spring’s Multi- Cultural Council Gala. Gibbs holds three degrees from the Black School of Business: Marketing ’05, International Business ’06, and an M.B.A. ’07. She also earned a Ph.D. in Information and Interaction Design from the University of Baltimore. She is a researcher at Google, having held positions previously with Walmart, Northrop- Grumman, and Bank of America. Of her time at Behrend, particularly her experiences with MCC, Gibbs said, “In these walls, I learned to cultivate my voice, honed my leadership skills, and made lifelong connections. I’m able to speak up and advocate for others today because of the things I learned in MCC and at Behrend.”
