I’m Carlos Vega, Ph.D., based in Boston, Massachusetts. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which enhances my ability to connect with diverse audiences. My expertise lies in event planning, sports marketing, and public speaking, honed through over a decade of experience in admissions and athletics at prestigious institutions like MIT and Saint Michael's College. I hold a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from the University of Vermont, alongside master's and bachelor's degrees in Sports Administration and Computer Science from the University of Miami and UNC Pembroke, respectively. Currently, I serve as the Senior Assistant Director of Admissions at MIT, where I bridge the gap between athletics and prospective students. My passion for sports and education drives my commitment to fostering inclusive environments in academic settings.
