Episode 39: All-In Alumni, With Lyndenise Berdecía Rivera

On the Season 5 finale of the NC State Philanthropy Podcast, we’re joined by Lyndenise Berdecía Rivera, chair of NC State Alumni’s board of directors, to talk about her experiences with the university and why she chooses to give back.

Berdecía Rivera graduated from the Poole College of Management in 2006 and has gone on to become a consultant and digital analyst in higher education. Of all the universities she’s worked with over the years, there’s one particularly near and dear to her heart. That’s why she has chosen to give of her time, talents and even treasure in support of NC State — especially its Latinx community.

Learn how Berdecía Rivera re-engaged with her alma mater and what she’s doing now to help others find their place as students, alumni and friends of the Wolfpack.
