Dell, Deborah A.: - Deborah Debi A.
Debi is actively involved in service to the University of Notre Dame and continues to support the Notre Dame class of 1976..
Specializing in brand management, her experiences with IBM inspired her first book, ThinkPad: A Different Shade of Blue.
She was one of the first employees to work from home and experienced the joys and tribulations associated with teleworking - but that\'s another story! In 1995, she earned a master\'s degree in the management of technology from the University of Miami in Florida.
After the blizzard of 1979, Debi returned to Florida, where she joined IBM in 1980 and eventually became program director for IBM\'s Project Management Center of Excellence.
While working for Commonwealth Edison as a technical sales representative, she completed an MBA at Loyola University Chicago.
Raised in South Florida, her parents encouraged her to pursue her career in the big city - Chicago. (And, yes, she was at ND during the Rudy years!) She graduated in 1976 with a bachelor\'s degree of business administration, with a focus on management.
Inspired by her father, attending Notre Dame was a personal goal from the age of eight.
Dell was a member of the first class of undergraduate women admitted to Notre Dame in 1972.
