Harrison Bench ’27 has always been a self-starter and highly motivated to make a lasting impact. He describes his professional career, thus far, as being marked by a robust passion for identifying and promoting policy solutions to the environmental challenges we face today. It was during high school that Harrison co-founded Students for Climate Action, an environmental non-profit organization. “The goal of Students for Climate Action is to connect youth with their elected officials to lobby for common-sense climate and renewable energy policy.”
Pace University sponsored a workshop with Dr. Nancy Peluso, funded by the Mellon grant: “Islands, Archipelagoes, and Cultural Ecologies.” The workshop, titled, “How to Tell Stories with Maps” grappled with how to use maps to tell stories about changes in the environment over time and its relationship to human migration.
The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University is proud to announce that ten policy motions led by Pace Haub Law students were officially adopted at the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) World Conservation Congress, held October 8–16, 2025, in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. A cohort of four Pace Haub Law faculty members, five students, and six alumni traveled to Abu Dhabi for the 2025 World Conservation Congress where they negotiated revisions to motions, crafted new and urgent motions, presented at sessions, addressed the IUCN President, and continued their environmental advocacy.
The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University is proud to announce that ten policy motions led by Pace Haub Law students were officially adopted at the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) World Conservation Congress, held October 8–16, 2025, in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. A cohort of four Pace Haub Law faculty members, five students, and six alumni traveled to Abu Dhabi for the 2025 World Conservation Congress where they negotiated revisions to motions, crafted new and urgent motions, presented at sessions, addressed the IUCN President, and continued their environmental advocacy.
“These motions are a testament to Pace Haub Law’s deep engagement with real-world environmental issues,” said Achinthi Vithanage, Professor of Law for Designated Service in Environmental Law & Executive Director of Environmental Law Programs and IUCN Faculty Lead, Global Center for Environmental Legal Studies. “Our students are not only learning about international environmental law and policy, but they are also actively participating in its progressive development. Our work may begin in the classroom, but it does not end there. Our students and alumni are helping shape the frameworks that guide environmental law and global sustainability.”
Since 2023, Global Center for Environmental Legal Studies (GCELS) students, alumni, and faculty at Pace Haub Environmental Law have been preparing for the 2025 IUCN World Conservation Congress, a premier international environmental policymaking forum held every four years. Under the mentorship of Professor Achinthi Vithanage, students in Advanced International Environmental Law and subsequent Guided Research courses researched and developed their own policy proposals. Students went on to secure support for those motions among IUCN members, negotiated them during online discussions, and ran advocacy campaigns to raise awareness of the issues discussed in the motions.
“The level of commitment towards the success of these motions by these students, alumni, and faculty is exemplary,” said Professor Vithanage. “Even after graduation from Pace Haub Law, alumni continued their advocacy and involvement, staying on as GCELS Staff Interns, while more experienced alums served as mentors. Ultimately, it was the dedication of these individuals, who worked collaboratively, that led to the successful advocacy for innovative solutions to pressing global environmental challenges.”
The successful motions address critical global issues such as combating illegal fishing, protecting Indigenous languages, conservation, restoring native grasslands, biodiversity, soil security, and more (see below for full listing). “Consistently at the forefront of environmental leadership and advocacy, these achievements represent another landmark success of the Pace Haub Law Environmental Law Program. Pace Haub Law’s students, alumni, and faculty continue to lead globally on environmental governance and diplomacy,” said Smita Narula, Haub Distinguished Professor of International Law and Co-Director of the Global Center for Environmental Legal Studies. “Their research, advocacy, and diplomacy in Abu Dhabi underscore the power of experiential learning and the impact that a law school community can have on shaping global policy.”
Since enrolling at Pace Haub Law, I have been eager to not only study international environmental law, but participate in the endless opportunities that the Law School has for student advocacy and real-world impact.
—Harrison Bench '27, Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University student
Pace Haub Law students who traveled to Abu Dhabi for the Congress described the experience as transformative. “I have seen firsthand how influential citizen advocacy can be,” said student participant Harrison Bench ‘27. “Since enrolling at Pace Haub Law, I have been eager to not only study international environmental law, but participate in the endless opportunities that the Law School has for student advocacy and real-world impact. Participating in the IUCN World Conservation Congress in Abu Dhabi allowed us to give a voice to those that are most impacted by environmental policies. I feel fortunate to be at a law school that creates life-changing opportunities like this.” Isabella Mazzei, a 2024 LLM graduate, shared a similar sentiment of her experience. “While I was an LLM student, my research on land conservation in Guatemala, a country home to 22 Indigenous languages, sparked my interest about the connection between language and environmental conservation practices, leading me to explore how Indigenous languages serve as vessels of ecological knowledge. I quickly realized the importance of protecting those languages as a way to promote conservation. Being able to advocate for protecting Indigenous languages at the Congress, and seeing our motion adopted, was an extraordinary privilege.”
Pace Haub Law faculty also held a prominent role during the Congress, presenting on several panels.
Additionally, during the Congress, GCELS hosted a Learning Zone Deep Dive Session on the topic From Classroom to Congress: Engaging Youth in International Environmental Policy-Making. The session brought together educators and young professionals passionate about empowering the next generation of environmental leaders. Led by Professor Achinthi Vithanage, the session featured insights from Professor David Forman (University of Hawaii) and CEO of World Future Council Neshan Gunasekera. “This was a very hands on session, where youth facilitators, including GCELS students and alumni from the Pace | Haub Environmental Law Program, guided participants through the process of drafting motions in a classroom setting to attending Congress,” shared Professor Vithanage. “These discussions not only deepened understanding of international environmental governance, but also sparked meaningful conversations about youth participation in decision making and the role of educators in enabling those spaces for participation.”
The Pace Haub Law delegation included a mix of current students, alumni, and faculty representing the Global Center for Environmental Legal Studies (GCELS). Students attending in person were Nicole Trent, Harrison Bench, Lara O’Callaghan, Victoria Sawchuk, and Francesca Gugino. Alumni attending in person included Samuel Carvalho, Isabella Mazzei, Morgan Martin, Justyna Maksimiuk, and Madison Routledge-Pettus, while Séverine Ginot participated virtually. Additional student delegates joining virtually were Kiran Chahal, Aubrey Welsh, Jake Firestein, Ashley Gentile, Karina Krul, Sara Curran, Joseph Mason, and Leonore Gaboardi Carandell; student Juliette Planes worked diligently on a motion leading up to the Congress, which ultimately passed. Together, these participants collaborated with faculty members Achinthi Vithanage, Nicholas Robinson, Victor Tafur, Shakeel Kazmi, Maria Lambert, and Michael Hamersky, contributing research, policy drafting, advocacy, and presentation support throughout the Congress.
This extraordinary experience was made possible through the generous support of the International Consortium of Ecological Law and the Haub family, whose continued commitment empowers Pace Haub Law students to engage in global environmental leadership.
MPA vs MPH: Discover the key differences to determine which degree best aligns with your career goals in public health, administration, or policy.
Deciding between a Master of Public Administration (MPA) and a Master of Public Health (MPH) is an important step in shaping your path toward a meaningful and impactful career. While both degrees prepare graduates for leadership roles in public service, each offers a distinct focus: A MPA develops leaders and analysts in public, and nonprofit organizations (which can be government agencies, healthcare institutions and non-profit organizations) with strong applied analytical and administrative skills to solve complex public service problems and manage public service programs, whereas a MPH equips professionals to address public health challenges through data-driven solutions in community health, disease prevention, and healthcare management.
In this guide, we’ll examine the core differences between these two degrees—including curriculum, program duration, and career outcomes—so you can determine which path best aligns with your professional goals and passion for public service.
A Master of Public Administration prepares professionals to lead and manage in the public and nonprofit sectors. With a curriculum rooted in public service management, operations, policy, and organizational leadership, this degree gives students the skills to develop and implement policies, manage resources and programs, and drive change within communities through evidence-driven assessment.
At Pace University, those core leadership competencies are further strengthened by a STEM designation that emphasizes advanced, data-analysis-driven social science methods, an advantage that also extends STEM OPT eligibility to international students. The program is fully accredited by the NASPAA, the global benchmark for public service education, and is ranked #121 in U.S. News & World Report’s 2025 list of Best Graduate Public Affairs Schools.
In addition to a stand-alone MPA, different types of specializations are available to tailor the degree toward specific career paths. For example, Pace University offers unique options such as a combined MPA/Juris Doctor, JD for those interested in expanding career possibilities across law, government, and public service through an accelerated dual-degree program.
Ideal for those interested in public service, a MPA is considered one of the best master’s degrees for business-minded professionals who want to make a tangible impact through leadership in government, public organizations, and nonprofit sectors.

Film and Screen Studies alumna Alexis Winston is living her dream, turning her passion for creating meaningful video content into a reality at The New York Times.
Class of 2017
BA in Film and Screen Studies
This is a brand-new role on the reporter video team, where I serve as a conduit between producers, journalists, and the operations team to execute high-quality video content that supports some of the most renowned reporters in the world. It’s deeply meaningful work, to contribute to one of the most respected news organizations on the planet, where our goal every day is to serve the public with accurate, thoughtful, and engaging journalism. Helping to bring that mission to life through video feels both purposeful and humbling.
My career trajectory has been perfectly imperfect. I spent about eight years freelancing in film, working my way from a production assistant to a production coordinator, and steering toward assistant directing. Landing a production assistant position at Paramount, however, changed everything; it opened the door to the corporate side of production, and I absolutely loved it. It was the perfect blend of office operations and 12-hour set days, a balance I didn’t know was possible. Like many in the industry, I faced periods of unemployment during the aftershocks of COVID and the SAG-AFTRA and Writers Guild strikes. But eventually, I found my way to Condé Nast and, later, The New York Times.
My love for movies began when I watched Mississippi Burning at just three years old, from beginning to end. From there, it grew through family movie nights at the Regal Theater in Peekskill and later in my high school’s film club, which happened to host the largest high school film festival in the country. Choosing film as a major was an easy decision. I wanted to study in the heart of New York City, where the streets themselves feel like a film set. I’m grateful to my parents for supporting my dream, because I can’t imagine having chosen any other path.
I chose Pace because of what the university stands for: ambition, inclusivity, and real-world experience. It always felt like the place where hard work met opportunity, and it truly was.
I chose Pace not just because of the scholarship opportunities I received, but because of what the university stands for: ambition, inclusivity, and real-world experience. Pace always felt like the place where hard work met opportunity, and it truly was. I saw that through my friends and classmates, who constantly inspired me to push myself. With the concrete jungle as our campus, I naturally adopted the hustle mentality that New York City demands. That drive stayed with me and became the foundation for how I approach my career today.
Pace was where I learned to take my dreams seriously. It was the first time that working in film felt tangible, something I could actually pursue. I used every opportunity, even in non-film classes, to create video projects instead of essays, and I collaborated with some of the incredible acting students to help bring those projects to life. Through Pace, I learned how to think creatively, work collaboratively, and turn my passion into a profession.
Professor Amy Zilliax of the Film and Screen Studies department is and was one of the most inspiring professors I’ve ever had. She helped me connect film to the larger human experience, reminding us that every frame tells a story about life itself. Her classes didn’t just teach film; they taught perspective, empathy, and curiosity. Her passion fueled mine and I am beyond grateful to have been taught by her.
New York has seen me through every version of myself. As a Pace student, I learned resilience–how to survive and thrive in a city that never stops moving. There were moments of loneliness, failure, and uncertainty, but Pace gave me the strength to keep going.
To current students, I’d say this: your time will come. Don’t rush it, don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s, and never give up. Keep showing up for yourself, even when the results don’t come right away. That’s where the magic happens.
Discover health informatics careers, explore paths and salaries, and learn how Pace’s online MS in Health Informatics can launch your future.

The professionals who work in this field are problem solvers and innovators, who play a crucial role in the quality of care patients receive from hospitals, doctors’ offices, and even insurance companies.
At its core, health informatics focuses on how we collect, digitize, store, and share health information. From electronic patient records to secure hospital networks, this field makes sure the right data gets to the right people at the right time, whether that’s a doctor at the bedside or a researcher tracking public health trends.
It’s a fast-moving, interdisciplinary field that blends information technology, communication, and clinical knowledge. Health informatics professionals work closely with physicians, nurses, specialists, and IT teams to make care more connected.
General responsibilities for health informatics professionals include:
As hospitals, clinics, and public health systems rely more heavily on digital tools, they need professionals who can make technology work for patients and the larger healthcare system.
They make sure electronic health records are accessible, accurate, and secure. They help doctors and nurses deliver faster, smarter care. They analyze trends, reduce costs, and drive decisions that improve patient outcomes across entire populations.
And according to the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics, the field shows incredible promise.
Employment for computer and information systems managers is projected to grow 15% from 2024 to 2034, much faster than the national average of 4% across occupations. Overall employment in healthcare occupations is also expected to grow rapidly, driven by aging populations, expanding data use, and an increased focus on value-based care.
In other words, the industry is scaling quickly, with plenty of opportunities for those who want to pursue it. Whether you’d like to work in a hospital, a public health agency, a private tech company, or a research institution, health informatics gives you the tools to lead meaningful change.
Health informatics is a career path that can be achieved with many different starting points.
Some professionals begin with a clinical background, such as nursing, pharmacy, or allied health, and build technical skills along the way. Others come from the tech world, then add medical knowledge to understand how their work impacts patient care.
What matters most is the ability to connect the dots between how health systems function, how technology supports them, and how to deliver smart, scalable solutions that improve outcomes.
Whether you're switching careers or upskilling, a degree in health informatics equips you with the tools you need to step into a high-impact role.

In this guide, we’ll break down how the education of a counselor and psychologist differs and explore the options for a master’s in counseling vs. psychology—covering key skills, licensure, and career outlook—to help you find the path that aligns with your goals. Read on to discover which career is the right fit for you.
Counselors and psychologists apply different skills and approaches to support mental health and personal growth. While both roles are dedicated to helping people, their methods and areas of focus set them apart.
Counselors assess client problems and provide counseling and psychotherapy to assist with a variety of issues that clients may face including
Essential skills for counselors include empathy, active listening, problem-solving, and effective communication.
Psychologists take a more diagnostic approach, assessing mental health conditions through testing and analysis to create treatment plans. They often work with complex, long-term mental health issues, applying analytical skills, diagnostic expertise, and a deep understanding of mental processes.
While both counseling and psychology degrees prepare students to work in mental health, they differ in training and approaches. Counselors are licensed at the master’s level. Psychology degrees, on the other hand, are more research-oriented and often require doctoral study, preparing students for in-depth diagnostics, research, and long-term treatment planning.
Here’s a look at some of the common degree programs at the master's and doctoral levels, including specific examples and requirements.
Counseling programs, such as the Master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Pace University, prepare students to work directly with clients in settings such as schools, hospitals, and private practices. Here’s what you can expect:
Psychology programs, such as the MA in Psychology, MSEd in School Psychology, PhD in School Psychology, and PsyD in School-Clinical Child Psychology at Pace University, often take an evidence-based approach incorporating research and practice. These programs prepare students for advanced diagnostic work, research, and treatment planning.
Licensure is essential for professionals in counseling and psychology, ensuring that they meet the necessary standards to practice independently and provide safe, ethical care. Here’s an overview of the licensure process for each field, including required exams, costs, and timelines.
To become a licensed counselor, graduates of counseling programs typically need to pass one of two national exams:
After passing an exam, aspiring counselors must complete post-graduate supervised experience hours, which can take two to four years depending on state requirements. Licensure timelines and additional requirements vary by state, but most require a specific number of supervised clinical hours and continuing education to maintain licensure.
The credential for becoming a School Psychologist working in public school settings is referred to as School Psychology Certification. Students obtaining a MSEd in School Psychology are eligible to apply for Certification as a School Psychologist.
The path to becoming a licensed psychologist generally requires a doctoral degree and passing the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP). This exam, administered by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards (ASPPB), assesses the foundational knowledge and skills needed for professional psychology practice. The EPPP exam fee is $600, with additional state fees in some cases.
To meet licensure requirements, psychologists must also complete supervised postdoctoral experience hours, often requiring between 1,500–2,000 hours depending on state regulations. Due to these requirements, licensure can take four to seven years post-degree. Licensure requirements vary by state and may also depend on a psychologist’s specialization, with some states requiring additional exams or coursework in specific areas.
The demand for both counselors and psychologists is on the rise, driven by increased awareness of mental health issues and the need for specialized support across a range of environments. Here’s an overview of job prospects, salary expectations, and potential work settings for each field.
The career outlook for counselors, especially in areas like substance abuse, behavioral disorders, and mental health counseling, is very strong. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for these counselors is projected to grow by 19 percent from 2023 to 2033, which is much faster than the average for all occupations. This growth is expected to add around 84,500 new jobs by 2033.
In 2023, counselors in these areas earned a median annual salary of $53,710 while working in various environments, including mental health centers, community health centers, private practices, schools, and hospitals. Many counselors work full-time, though part-time and flexible hours are also common, especially in private practice settings.
Psychologists can expect solid job growth and a higher-than-average median salary, especially in clinical, counseling, and school psychology roles. Employment for psychologists is projected to grow by seven percent from 2023 to 2033, which is faster than the average across all professions, with an estimated increase of 14,000 jobs over this period.
In 2023, the median annual salary for psychologists was $92,740 while working in diverse settings, including private practices, schools, hospitals, and research institutions. Many psychologists work full-time, with some accommodating clients by offering evening or weekend appointments.
Whether it’s guiding someone through career choices or helping families find balance, counselors and psychologists bring specialized skills to diverse challenges. Here’s a closer look at the scopes of practice and potential specializations within each field, along with insights into typical salary ranges for those practicing in New York City.
Counselors assist individuals in overcoming personal, social, and psychological challenges. Specializations within counseling include:
Psychologists study cognitive, emotional, and social processes and behaviors. Specializations within psychology include:
These specializations not only reflect the diversity within counseling and psychology but also allow professionals to tailor their careers to their passions and strengths. By choosing a focused path, counselors and psychologists can deepen their expertise, stay adaptable in an evolving field, and ultimately make a lasting difference where it matters most.

Choosing between a counseling and a psychology degree means understanding how each field aligns with your problem-solving style, educational goals, and desired impact on others’ lives. While psychologists and counselors serve different needs, one is not "better" than the other; each brings essential skills to the mental health field, helping clients in distinct ways.
The following factors can help you determine which path best suits your aspirations.
1. Career Goals: If you’re passionate about providing direct support to clients facing personal, social, or behavioral challenges, a career in counseling might be the right fit. Counselors often work on immediate, practical issues, providing guidance and coping strategies to help clients overcome specific challenges.
On the other hand, if you’re interested in diagnosing complex mental health conditions, conducting research, or working in specialized settings like hospitals and universities, a career in psychology may align more closely with your preferences. Psychologists often engage in in-depth assessments, research, and long-term treatment planning.
2. Education and Time Commitment: The level of education required for each field is another important consideration. For those interested in counseling, a master’s degree in counseling or a related field is often sufficient for licensure. This path can typically be completed within two to three years.
Further, pursuing advanced training as a mental health counselor typically involves completing a doctoral degree, such as a PhD in mental health counseling or counselor education and supervision. This degree usually takes three to five years beyond master’s in mental health counseling and includes advanced coursework, heavy research focus and training as a counselor supervisor.
PhD in mental health counseling prepares professionals to become leaders in the field of counseling, equipping them for roles in academia as counselor educators, clinical supervision, program development, and advanced counseling practice.
Pursuing a career as a psychologist usually requires a doctoral degree, such as a PhD or PsyD, which can take five to seven years, including research and practicum experiences. This longer educational path equips psychologists for advanced diagnostic and research roles.
3. Work Preferences: Consider the types of work environments you prefer and the nature of client interactions you envision. Mental Health Counselors often work in schools, community health centers, or private practices, focusing on a range of client needs that include both short-term and ongoing counseling and psychotherapy.
Counselors with an advanced degree, such as PhD in mental health counseling, may also work in academic institutions, taking on roles such as teaching, conducting research, and training future counselors.
Psychology roles, particularly in clinical and counseling psychology, may involve long-term client relationships and are often found in hospitals, research facilities, and academic institutions. Additionally, psychologists may work with highly specialized populations or pursue research in a specific area of interest. Certified School Psychologists typically work in educational settings, while those with doctoral school psychology training can also work in academic institutions, educational agencies, research facilities, and community mental health agencies.
Choosing a path in counseling or psychology is a decision that shapes not only your career but also the lives you’ll impact along the way.
Whether your goal is to provide hands-on guidance as a counselor through a program like the MS in Mental Health Counseling or to dive into mental health research and diagnosis as a psychologist through the MA in Psychology, Pace University offers multiple paths to help you succeed. You can also apply directly to doctoral programs such as the PhD in School Psychology, PhD in Clinical Psychology, or PsyD in School-Clinical Psychology—no MA required.

Harrison Bench ’27 has always been a self-starter and highly motivated to make a lasting impact. He describes his professional career, thus far, as being marked by a robust passion for identifying and promoting policy solutions to the environmental challenges we face today. It was during high school that Harrison co-founded Students for Climate Action, an environmental non-profit organization. “The goal of Students for Climate Action is to connect youth with their elected officials to lobby for common-sense climate and renewable energy policy.”

He describes his professional career, thus far, as being marked by a robust passion for identifying and promoting policy solutions to the environmental challenges we face today. It was during high school that Harrison co-founded Students for Climate Action, an environmental non-profit organization. “The goal of Students for Climate Action is to connect youth with their elected officials to lobby for common-sense climate and renewable energy policy.”;
Harrison has had a diverse range of experiences in the private, public, and non-profit sectors. “I have worked at all levels of government, in various branches of government, and with members of both political parties to advance this mission.” These opportunities, however, taught Harrison that policy is only part of the solution. “Signing a bill into law does little if that law isn’t enforced, interpreted, and defended by a comprehensive network of attorneys in various sectors. Environmental attorneys, whether at government agencies, non-profit groups, or private firms, play a key role in the policy process.” Harrison’s varied background ultimately drove him to pursue a career in law and notably, as the first in his family to attend law school. ;
Once he decided to pursue law school, choosing the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University was an easy decision. “The Law School has a world-renowned environmental law program. It is close to my home on Long Island, a leader in the New York legal market, and offered a generous scholarship. I am ecstatic to be in New York and studying at the #1 environmental law program in the country.”;
Harrison describes his experiences at Pace Haub Law as incredible. “While I've really enjoyed the courses I've taken so far, some of my favorite experiences have been outside of the classroom. Pace Haub Law and the Environmental Program have introduced me to countless real-world opportunities, resources, and connections. Whether it be a networking happy hour, a guest lecture, or this fall's World Conservation Congress in Abu Dhabi, I am so grateful to be at a school that prioritizes holistic and innovative approaches to legal education.”

—Harrison Bench '27, Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University student
The faculty at Pace Haub Law have also stood out to Harrison since he started law school. “Professors Katy Kuh and Achinthi Vithanage have been incredible professors and mentors since my arrival. They’ve advised me on courses, introduced me to new organizations, connected me with job opportunities, and broadened my understanding of environmental law. I feel fortunate to have such dedicated, knowledgeable, and forward-thinking professors.” While at Pace Haub Law, Harrison is pursuing an Advanced Certificate in Environmental Law and a dual degree program with Yale School of the Environment, where he will graduate with both his JD and MEM (Master of Environmental Management).;
A driven student, Harrison has taken advantage of the many learning opportunities available at Pace Haub Law. During his 1L summer, he worked at the EPA's Office of Regional Counsel (New York). Last Spring, he participated in the New York Environmental Externship, where he interned at the New York State Department of Public Service (Long Island, NY). This past summer, he worked at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, LLP (New York, NY), specifically as an intern in the firm’s Sustainability Advisory Practice.;
“After graduating, I'd like to work at a law firm that specializes in environmental, climate, energy, and land use law,” shared Harrison. “I am excited to apply the skills I've learned during my time at Pace Haub Law to real-world cases, transactions, and regulatory matters. Later on, I would love to end up somewhere in the policy space, either working in government service, running for elected office, or starting my own consultancy. My professors have been inspirational and because of them, I think it would be fulfilling to teach in some capacity as well.”;
Very aware of the importance of networking, Harrison is also the Student Co-Chair of ABA SEER's Environmental Law Society Network (ELSN), an organization he has been affiliated with since his 1L year. ELSN connects environmental law students at schools across the country and provides them with professional development, substantive law, and social networking opportunities. It also serves as a conduit between law students and ABA SEER, the nation's preeminent environmental law association. He is also a Symposium Editor for the Pace Environmental Law Review. Recently, Harrison placed 2nd in the 2025 William R. Ginsberg Memorial Essay Contest, run by NYSBA’s Environmental and Energy Law Section. His essay, “Liar, Liar, BESS on Fire,” explores the history of battery storage, recent developments in battery energy storage system (BESS) safety, and the legality of local zoning moratoria enacted against BESS facilities.
Outside of law school, Harrison enjoys hanging out with friends and family, going to concerts, and spending time at the beach. If he could give a piece of advice to future or current law students, it would be to have the courage to say no. “As a 1L, there is a lot of pressure on students to take every opportunity that is offered to them. While it's great to get involved early on, it's important to prioritize your mental health and avoid burnout. Be selective with your time; saying no to someone else allows you to say yes to yourself! The right opportunities will find their way to you, and when they do, you will feel confident accepting them.”;

In speaking before hundreds of students, faculty, alumni, and industry professionals at Pace University in Lower Manhattan for the second annual Pace of Fintech: Accelerating Innovation Conference, Matthew Papas, chief data officer at Sixth Street, gave students of all majors and interests sage advice.
“You’re never going to know everything walking in the door — the most important skill is being able to figure things out,” said Papas. “The best people I’ve hired aren’t necessarily computer science or finance majors. I’ve seen musicians and liberal arts grads thrive because they understand how data, technology, and business connect. If you’re curious and willing to experiment, you can learn almost anything. The tools are all out there — it’s about having the drive to use them.”
The event, a collaboration between Pace University and global investment firm Sixth Street, explored how artificial intelligence, tokenization, and cybersecurity are reshaping the financial services landscape and the future of work. A keynote fireside chat and expert panel sessions offered students real-world insights and a front-row seat to the forces transforming the fintech landscape.
The program opened with a thought-provoking fireside chat between Jonathan Hill, DPS, interim provost and executive vice president for academic affairs at Pace, and Papas, Sixth Street’s chief data officer. Their discussion examined the explosive growth of data in financial decision-making and set the tone for an afternoon of bold ideas and future-focused dialogue.
“This conference is a testament to the power of collaboration between academia and industry to drive innovation,” said Hill. “By bringing together experts and emerging leaders in fintech, we’re not only exploring the technologies transforming global finance—we’re preparing our students to shape that future.”
The event built on the momentum of Pace’s inaugural Actionable AI Conference in Pleasantville, further underscoring the University’s leadership at the intersection of artificial intelligence, education, and industry innovation.
Among the featured sessions were three panel discussions that explored emerging challenges and opportunities in the fintech space:
The first panel, “Tokenization and Its Implications for Financial Markets,” sponsored by the Lubin School of Business, was moderated by finance professor Iuliana Ismailescu. The session explored how blockchain, tokenization, and digital assets are reshaping traditional financial systems and accelerating the shift toward a decentralized future. Panelists included Piotr Marciszweki, commercialization lead for digital assets and Carlos Vivas, head of engineering for Citi’s Digital Assets Platform, as well as Janet Wynn, adjunct professor of finance at Lubin. Together, they addressed the regulatory, technical, and institutional challenges that come with this transformation.
Shifting from technology to talent, the next discussion, “Hiring Great Talent in the FinTech Industry,” offered students an inside look at what today’s fintech employers are really looking for. Kate Smith, HR business partner and Whitney Hannallah, investment engineering analyst — both of Sixth Street — joined Phyllis Mooney, assistant vice president of Career Services and Employer Relations at Pace, to share insights on preparing for the industry’s evolving demands. From adapting to market trends to building cross-functional skills, panelists emphasized that success in fintech depends as much on curiosity and adaptability as it does on technical knowledge.
“Even the biggest financial firms have long understood that technology isn’t just there to support the business — it’s what drives it forward,” said Smith, of Sixth Street. “That’s why curiosity and adaptability matter so much. We don’t expect you to know everything, but we want to see that you’re a sponge — that you ask questions, stay curious, and find ways to grow. That mindset is a gift, and it’s one of the most valuable traits any team looks for.”
To close out the conference, “Cybersecurity Threats to Financial Services: From Infrastructure to AI,” tackled one of the most pressing concerns facing the industry today. Led by Li-Chiou Chen, interim dean and professor at the Seidenberg School, the panel brought together cybersecurity leaders including Todd Hammond, vice president of cybersecurity enterprise technology risk management and adjunct professor at Pace, Marc Kowtko of JPMorgan Chase, and Javier Navarro-Machuca, PhD, founder and board member of Nova. The session explored how financial institutions are adapting to an increasingly complex threat landscape, from foundational infrastructure risks to the far-reaching implications of generative AI.
“AI isn’t a career ender—it’s a game changer,” said Hammond. “We’ll learn to work alongside it, master it, and use it to amplify what only humans can bring: our ethics, our morals, and our creativity.”
A networking reception followed the panels, offering students and guests the opportunity to connect with speakers, recruiters, and faculty. As part of its broader commitment to innovation and workforce readiness, Pace also announced the launch of a new Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence, beginning in fall 2026. Offered through the Seidenberg School, the new program complements existing master’s degrees in Artificial Intelligence and Applied Artificial Intelligence and reflects Pace’s ongoing commitment to equipping students with practical skills and a strong understanding of how emerging technologies are transforming the world.
“Fintech is transforming the world, and at Pace University, we have been preparing our students to lead that transformation,” said Pace President Marvin Krislov. “This conference reflected what Pace does best, bringing together industry and academia to turn ideas into action. Our continued partnership with Sixth Street gave students, faculty, and professionals the chance to learn from one another, share insights, and explore the technologies that are driving the future of finance.”
