Madeline Rowland ’23

“My experience at Wilmington Friends School taught me the importance of time management, resilience, and community. Academically, the rigorous curriculum helped me develop my critical thinking skills, intellectual curiosity, and the habits to handle complex material, all of which have equipped me with the tools to excel at Williams.”

 
Madeline Rowland ’23 is a sophomore student-athlete at Williams College majoring in Psychology and English. This past summer, Rowland served as a Research Analyst for MehtaCognition. In her role, she led research and quantitative (primary and secondary) and qualitative data analysis through customer segmentation comparisons, competitive profiles, and market sizing and growth analyses. Rowland was responsible for translating the findings from her research into actionable implications to improve clients’ core businesses. 

Rowland helped lead the Williams field hockey team to the Division III National Semifinals this fall. She played in all 20 contests, starting ten games and accumulating 12 points (five goals, two assists). As a student-athlete at WFS, Rowland noted, “Competing at a high level while managing my academics has taught me how to efficiently manage my time. Most importantly, Quaker values, such as teamwork and integrity, have shaped my ability to build strong relationships with teammates and professors, which has been critical for balancing college sports and academics. These experiences have given me confidence in my ability to face challenges head-on and thrive in the supportive and ambitious atmosphere that is Williams College.” 

Congratulations on an excellent season, Madeline!
