Background

About Ethan McDevitt

I am a first-generation MBA candidate at Bryant University (expected grad May 2027) concentrating in Marketing with a minor in Communications. With a 3.68 GPA and four consecutive Dean’s List honors, I’ve combined strong academic performance with hands-on experience in marketing, leadership, and customer engagement. As a Marketing Intern at BridgeConnex Telecom, I design and implement social media strategies, create content across platforms, and draft weekly email campaigns reaching 600+ agents. My work includes infographics, industry-focused creative posts, and website contributions—helping the company strengthen brand awareness and engagement. My role as a Sales Associate, Cook, and Supervisor at Pizzeria Romana has also strengthened my ability to lead under pressure, manage customer relations, and guide coworkers when acting as manager. These experiences taught me how to balance operations, teamwork, and leadership in fast-paced environments. At Bryant, I’ve been part of several award-winning projects, including: Marketing Case Challenge – First Place for a multi-tier plan presented to Plant City’s CEO. Bryant IDEA Design Thinking Competition – First Place for co-developing an AI-based investing tool. Applied Economics Competition – 2nd Place for solutions tied to global education. Business Plan Development – Led a team to produce a 25-page plan addressing UN SDGs (scored 99/100). I am also an inducted member of Tri-Alpha Honor Society (first-generation college students) and Mu-Kappa-Tau Marketing Honor Society (top 10% of marketing majors, with early induction due to my accelerated degree path). What drives me is the ability to merge creative problem-solving with execution. Whether it’s building a marketing campaign, pitching to professionals, or leading a project team, I enjoy taking on challenges that require innovation and strategy. Recently, I’ve expanded into real estate, completing the 45 hours of education that qualifies me to test for my license. I plan on becoming a real estate agent while also pursuing opportunities in real estate wholesaling. I welcome discussions and collaborations on real estate projects, investment strategies, and entrepreneurial ventures. I am passionate about marketing, brand development, real estate, and strategy—and eager to keep building skills in environments where innovation and collaboration drive results.
