Anthony Diaz, ’98 : Digital Transformation Consultant, CrossCountry Consulting
What was your path to graduation at The Ohio State University?
I started as a finance and accounting major, but it wasn't really fully clicking for me. I had an advisor who recommended that I look at transportation and supply chain management during my sophomore year. After that conversation with my advisor, I switched to a double major in finance and transportation. I now work in a supply chain and logistics role so it was pretty good advice.
Why do you support the Office of Diversity and Inclusion?
I got a new advisor my sophomore year who was ODI-based, which changed the trajectory of my college career.
What do you do now?
I live in the Phoenix area and work as a digital transformation consultant for a company called CrossCountry Consulting. I've had clients like First Energy, the Golden State Warriors, Peloton, and Battelle. I've traveled all over the world because of my job. And it all started at Ohio State.
What is your advice for current students?
Get involved! Take advantage of opportunities. Build a strong network of people who have been in your path. None of us are as smart as all of us. Strategy. Establish a broad collective. Finding lots of people that can help you out is key. Everyone has a unique journey. Make your way.
