Find Your Flock, Ep28: A Hoboken Native’s Path to Industrial & Systems Engineering w/ Eve Gutierrez

What happens when you grow up in Hoboken and choose to build your future right where it started? In this episode of Finding Your Flock, Eve Gutierrez shares how her hometown roots shaped her journey at Stevens, from being a first-generation college student to finding her place in Industrial & Systems Engineering after exploring multiple paths. Her story isn’t linear, and that’s exactly the point. Through her leadership in the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) and a pivotal trip to a national conference, Eve created the opportunity that led to her internship with L3Harris Technologies — gaining real-world experience and clarity on where she wants to go next. It’s a conversation about staying grounded, taking chances, and realizing you don’t have to go far to go big. ℹ️ About the Department of Systems Engineering: https://www.stevens.edu/se ⚙ About the Bachelor's Degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering: https://www.stevens.edu/program/industrial-systems-engineering-bachelor-degree 🎧 Follow Find Your Flock for more student journeys: Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4ZZ1voMlZxJbvbXgQ5DGY7 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-your-flock/id1811444054 About Find Your Flock: https://www.stevens.edu/find-your-flock-podcast

Find Your Flock, E27: Balancing Athletics, Leadership and the Pre-Health Path w/Paulina Georgoutsos

She arrived at Stevens with one plan — and left with another. In this episode of Find Your Flock, Paulina Georgoutsos, a chemical biology graduate, shares how she balanced varsity field hockey, Student Government Association president and pre-health coursework while building her foundation in the sciences. With strong faculty and advisor support, she navigated everything from research to standardized exams. Originally set on dentistry, an unexpected opportunity led her to podiatric medicine — a field that aligned perfectly with her interests in surgery, sports medicine and patient care. Now a medical student, Paulina reflects on how Stevens prepared her for what came next, and why the right path isn't always a straight one.
