New Student Profile: Maggie Pearthree

Editor’s Note: This is part of a series of profiles we’ll be posting over the summer to introduce everyone to our incoming Class of 2014. Enjoy getting to know our new students as they get to know each other, our current students, staff, and the entire Tippie community!

Maggie Pearthree

Hometown: Minneapolis, MN/ USA

Undergrad institution: Hamline University, St. Paul, MN

Major: Art History

Current city: Moved to Iowa City Sept 2010 from Asheville, NC

Current employment: Most recently, I was the Managing Partner for a boutique web-development shop specializing in beautifully designed, user-friendly and search optimized websites. I did everything except write code and graphic design; Information Architecture, Client Relations and Sales, Project Management, Accounting and everything in between!

Why I chose Tippie: Tippie has a great reputation and offers a great value, but what really drew me in were the hands on learning experiences.

Something unique about me: I love to bake and spent a year learning to bake various artisan breads at home. Pain de Campagne anyone?

I also enjoy any type of travel. One of my favorite trips was driving the Al-Can Highway from Alaska to Minnesota with my husband, Todd and our dog, Parker.
