Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

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

Your Fuqua experience is all about what you put into it.

To become a leader capable of helping others achieve their high aspirations, I knew I would have to show up, engage, and interact.

While I credit the institution for providing numerous leadership opportunities, my classmates are the ones who have encouraged me to pursue those opportunities.

Growing up in a small town with limited resources, I never had many opportunities to explore leadership roles or discover my full potential. But that changed when I came to Fuqua.

I came to Duke’s Fuqua School of Business with the goal of building out my strategy skillset.

I had this burning passion for combining my enthusiasm for community service with a career path.

The languages I speak, as well as my reflections on home and borders, is what led me to pursue an MBA at Fuqua.

Global Week is an event celebrating Fuqua’s international diversity and inclusivity, and typically it’s a great opportunity for Fuqua students to showcase their home cultures and interact with alumni with international backgrounds.

Companies from different industries come to Fuqua’s campus with fascinating challenges, so I was very intentional when handpicking just a few of them to participate in, focusing on gaining exposure to industries I was genuinely interested in.
