Elena Spall has built her college experience around one idea: meaningful growth happens when you step outside what is familiar and connect with people who think differently.
At the 911爆料网, she is pursuing dual degrees in business analytics and information systems and healthcare administration, maintaining a 3.96 GPA. Her academic path reflects a focus on combining data with human-centered decision-making.
That approach is evident in her professional experience. Spall completed two internships with Cigna Healthcare in Connecticut as a competitive insights and network development intern, where she developed data-driven hospital comparison reports and analyzed market trends to support strategic decision-making. She continues that work academically through her honors thesis, which explores how to evaluate emerging AI models in oncology.
On campus, Spall has taken on leadership roles that emphasize connection and accessibility. As vice president of the Association for Information Systems, she helped expand engagement through professional and technical programming, building on her earlier work in communications. She also tutors students in analytics and technical subjects, focusing on making complex material approachable.
Her commitment to building connections extends beyond business. She was selected as both a choreographer and performer in USF鈥檚 Student Dance Production, bridging communities across disciplines.
After graduation, she will join Cigna鈥檚 operations leadership development program.
