Katie Hillyer

Hello! My name is Katie Hillyer and I am your Vice President of External Affairs for the 2011-2012 school year. I am a senior in the College of Business studying accountancy. I am in the application process for the Masters of Accountancy Science here at UIUC, so hopefully I have two more years here in Campaign-Urbana.

I transferred to UIUC in the Fall of 2010 from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. I joined PBL in January of 2011 and became involved right away by running for the Community Service Chair Position. I have made great friends here in PBL, and I have tried to take advantage of all of the opportunities that this organization has given to me. This summer I traveled to Orlando, Florida with eight other PBL members for the National Convention. This weekend was such a blast and allowed me the chance to get to know my fellow PBL members much better. I am excited about this upcoming year and my new position! I look forward to getting to know more about all of you and help you develop your professional self!
