I was drawn to the idea of owning and operating a business, especially in health care, so entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA) felt like a natural fit.

The MBA is a lot of things at once: an academic experience, a career accelerator, a social community, and, depending on where you are in life, a personal challenge that runs parallel to everything else happening at home.

As I celebrate graduation, I am proud. Proud of the community I found, the perspective I contributed, and the person I became here.
