Graduate Profile

Tyler Martinez

Tyler Martinez
Graduation: 2008
Major: Economics and Philosophy

“Economics has everything to do with, well … everything!”

These are the words of Tyler Martinez, a philosophy and economics alumnus, who knew early on that money makes the world go ’round.

“Robert Cunningham put economics into perspective for me,” says Martinez, who graduated in 2008. “Now I find it hard to leave economic terms out of my daily conversations with family and friends.”
