Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

As a second-year student, I’ve approached this chapter of my journey with intentionality, striving to maximize all the unique opportunities this experience has to offer.

Silicon Valley isn’t just home to coders or AI data scientists; it’s a gathering place for all kinds of like-minded individuals working together to create a better future for the world.

Getting an internship in tech was no easy journey, even with a tech background.

Reflecting on my journey during my first year at Fuqua, I am grateful for the experiences and opportunities that challenged me and shaped my career path.

I aimed to pivot from consulting to marketing, which I was successfully able to do. However, an MBA at Fuqua not only facilitated this transition but allowed me to explore alternative career interests, such as venture capital.

I am grateful for learning opportunities like having guest speakers in class and attending conferences to hear from the world’s foremost thought leaders tackling the world’s greatest climate problems.

When I was applying to business schools, I knew that one of the main reasons I was getting an MBA was to pivot into marketing.

When I reflect on my journey of career transition, I realize that the HSM program at Fuqua has been instrumental in preparing me to take the jump into health care innovation.
