I came to Fuqua eager to test how my legal training would translate in a broader business context. I was used to helping clients think through risk, structure and consequences, but I wanted to better understand how strategy is built when the problem is still evolving and the answer is not immediately clear. Through the Fuqua Client Consulting Practicum (FCCP), I had the opportunity to take on a real business challenge in the relatively unfamiliar food sustainability space.

I believe there is one thing many of us have in common: We come to Fuqua to think seriously about our careers.

To understand more about their career journeys, I posed the same question to these Fuqua alumni working in MES: What’s been the most challenging or unexpected part of building a career in MES, and how did you navigate it?
