Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

When my partner was admitted, we celebrated with excitement but also faced the uncertainty of starting from scratch.

As I reflect on my path to Duke, I recognize that this experience is a culmination of years and years of work. This has grounded me in the present, allowing me to celebrate and reflect on who and where I am in the moment.

Both Duke basketball and Fuqua understand that success isn't just about individual talent — it's about building a culture of excellence, fostering collaboration, and maintaining resilience under pressure.

A major part of my decision to attend Fuqua was to develop as a leader.

The excitement of starting my MBA journey was matched only by its challenges.

Sometimes the best way to find your path is to stop looking for it so hard. Just walk.

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.

The university's commitment to excellence, diversity, and leadership development has shaped me into who I am today.
