Gurjote Sethi

College Advisor @ Georgia Tech

Location: New Jersey

Orgs and ECs:
Student Center Programs Council, Student Government Association, Sikh Student Association, Resident Hall Association

Bio:

My skillset is bringing energy, perspective, and clarity into my work and helping people around me become their best selves! I am a recent Georgia Tech Alumnus in the Mergers & Acquisitions Strategy Consulting practice at Ernst & Young – Parthenon, and have previous experience at PwC, The Walt Disney Company, Cinnabon, and Spotify.

My passions lie within the hospitality industry, renewable energy/sustainability, socially responsible business, and bringing people together!

When not hard at work, you can generally find me deep in the mountains trying to photograph wildlife, in my backyard making some barbecue, in my hammock enjoying a good book, playing my ukulele, or rewatching my favorite films/shows!

In the words of Thoreau, “I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.” I am here to help you elevate your life through conscious endeavor, and I look forward to your success!

Sanjot Singh

College Advisor @ Georgia Tech

Location: Dallas, Texas

Orgs and ECs:
GT Cheer team, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), GT Campus Tour Guide, Global Leadership Community

Bio:

Kidhan Ji! My name is Sanjot, but feel free to call me Sunny. I’m a Junior at GT and also a first-gen college kid in my family. Alongside classes, I am currently interning remotely at Amazon Robotics as a Hardware Engineer. In the past, I have interned at Avanos, a MedTech company, and at Boeing as a 787 Equipment Engineer.

Outside of technical experiences, I’m part of the Georgia Tech Cheer team. Cheering in college was never something I’d imagined, especially after playing Texas football all throughout high school. Speaking of, my high school had a large senior class of 900, so I can definitely relate to the challenges of standing out in college applications. My other hobbies include biking, traveling (especially road-tripping), video editing, and rewatching Hasan Minhaj!

Additionally being from Dallas, I’d be happy to share my experience coming to a public college as an out-of-state student. I look forward to connecting and helping you grow throughout college and your career!
