Alyssa Sierra

Alyssa Sierra is a proud Double Demon who turned her passion for communication into a thriving career. After earning her bachelor’s degree in PR/Advertising and Media Communications with a minor in Latina Media Communications, she returned to DePaul to complete her MBA in Marketing. Today, she works as a Brand Manager at Kimberly-Clark.

Drawn to DePaul by its top-tier programs and Chicago's vibrant environment, Alyssa credits the university’s Layered-Learning™ approach with preparing her for a fast-paced career. Whether pitching campaigns to major brands like Hyatt, leading pro-bono social media strategies for the non-profit HACE, or landing an internship and job at RXBAR through a fellow alum, she built hands-on expertise backed by faculty mentorship and professional connections.
