Katzen says, \u201cAt all too many schools, there are barriers preventing us from going beyond class topics, but at iSchool, I was not only free but encouraged, to learn subjects in greater detail or in paradigms that resonated with me.\u201d <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Katzen says that he feels his curiosity to learn was stifled at the traditional school he attended before transferring. He says that there were two teachers at iSchool High who really helped shape his education. \u201cDr. Bourgeois helped me discover that it was up to me to learn for learning\u2019s sake,\u201d says Katzen. This helped prepare him for college where success is determined by more than just grades. Katzen also attributes his math-centered career to his high school math teacher Mr. Phillips. \u201cHe let me do personal research on tangential subjects in class. His projects were open-ended in ways that allowed me to explore novel concepts.\u201d Katzen continues, \u201cI had always been good at math, but his class was the first time I felt free to love the subject.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3521\" src=\"https:\/\/resedblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/1280px-McCombs_School_of_Business_logo.svg_-1024x433.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"84\" srcset=\"https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/1280px-McCombs_School_of_Business_logo.svg_-1024x433.png 1024w, https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/1280px-McCombs_School_of_Business_logo.svg_-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/1280px-McCombs_School_of_Business_logo.svg_-768x325.png 768w, https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/1280px-McCombs_School_of_Business_logo.svg_.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Five years after graduating from iSchool High, Katzen earned his Master of Science from the world-renown business analytics program at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mccombs.utexas.edu\/\">McCombs School of Business<\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.utexas.edu\/\">The University of Texas at Austin<\/a>. \u201cThe most important factor to my success in that program was my drive to ask questions and explore concepts not explicitly taught,\u201d says Katzen. \u201cMy high school teachers encouraged me to grow in ways there were best for me and that directly translated to success in higher education.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Katzen\u2019s advice for current high school students is, \u201cUniversity is mostly what you make of it. It is about how you utilize the resources you are given and about your own personal growth and development.\u201d Katzen says, \u201cWith that said, you shouldn\u2019t break the bank to go to one great university over a slightly less great one. At the end of your whirlwind of fun, stress, exams, growth, decisions that didn\u2019t seem bad at the time, and learning, you have to enter the real world. Make sure that college prepares you to take on the world and doesn\u2019t become a four-year vacation from life that you are paying for the next 20.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Katzen pursued a career in data analysis after following his love of math and taking business and programming classes in his undergraduate studies. \u201cI can\u2019t imagine being in any other field. There are so many rabbit holes I\u2019ve yet to go down and topics I\u2019ve yet to explore,\u201d says Katzen. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As a data scientist at Affinity Answers, Katzen spends most of his days developing and iteratively improving mathematical models that use social data to create audience segments for advertisers to buy for relevant advertising. \u201cI also explain very technical concepts in intuitive ways to non-technical people and collaborate with them to create products that I know are buildable and that they know will lead the company in the right direction,\u201d says Katzen.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A quote by Joe Rogan inspires Katzen to continue pushing his limits, \u201cYou have to overcome difficult issues to really understand the true potential of your mind and body.\u201d <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>An important lesson that Katzen has learned throughout his education is that school and learning are related, but are not the same. \u201cSome school structures and limitations of schools can obfuscate the joy of learning,\u201d says Katzen. \u201cDon\u2019t let it fool you into believing there is no joy to be found.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3136\" src=\"https:\/\/resedblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ResponsiveEd-Alumni-Network-e1534528463806.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"289\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/08\/ResponsiveEd-Alumni-Network-e1534528463806.png 691w, https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/08\/ResponsiveEd-Alumni-Network-e1534528463806-300x235.png 300w, https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/08\/ResponsiveEd-Alumni-Network-e1534528463806-536x420.png 536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>For more information about the ResponsiveEd Alumni Network, please visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/responsiveed.com\/alumni\/\">www.responsiveed.com\/alumni\/<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\r\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_3519\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"3519\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/responsiveed.com\/responsiveed-blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iSchool High &#8211;
