Fuqua offered me a safe environment to take risks and move outside my comfort zone.

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 so grateful for the opportunity to do activities that I love while building my leadership skills and creating lifelong friends along the way.
