Alumni Profile: Chad Woehrle

“North Park gave me a competitive edge in the field of marketing communications,” says Chad Woehrle, who works as an account executive for Korzenowski Design, Inc. Citing his professors’ experience and awareness of the latest industry developments, Chad credits the School of Professional Studies for helping advance his career. “With my business administration degree, I’ve helped my company not only be more successful, but also become a leader in the Chicago business community,” he says.

Value and reputation were among the traits Chad considered in a school when he was seeking to return to the classroom. “I didn’t want to take out student loans to pay for college,” he says, “and North Park gave me the best value, plus the option to pay for each class as it came along.” Most important, Chad believes, “ the School of Professional Studies has a very good reputation in Chicago for assisting adults who want to finish their degree.”
