Back to their roots
Randy, geneticist
"The biggest factor [that inspired me to come back home] was proximity to the people who matter most. Being close to family and lifelong friends is a big win and a privilege. It is important to have that support around when you need it."
Christy, accounting
"We found out really quick that having connections and a support system were priceless. Whether it was a business transaction, job opportunity, or babysitter, having people there for you
made all the difference.”
Philip, accounts payable
"The misconception I had in high school and college was that I was going to need to live in Lincoln or Omaha to have a successful career. This couldn’t have been further from the truth. The number of great opportunities in Columbus and many rural areas in Nebraska far outweighs the number of candidates for the positions."
