Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

The Team Fuqua spirit is what continues to drive my connections with my classmates, professors, colleagues, and current Fuqua students.

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.

Dreaming is simple, but fear and discomfort often set in when turning our dreams into reality.

Passionate about the impact we could make in our respective fields, we came to Fuqua looking for meaningful opportunities to make a difference.

While I initially struggled to build a strong community at Fuqua, I eventually found my home here.

There is so much information available about universities and MBA programs that it can be a bit overwhelming.

After just a few months of working with my team, I’ve learned how to embrace other’s differences to make a strong team.

No matter where you are on the rollercoaster ride of an MBA, the Fuqua community is always there to support you.

The MBA, for me, is the perfect tool to become a better leader, to learn from the experiences of people from different industries and cultures, and to understand how the world is changing and transforming.

It is evident to me that returning to Fuqua feels like coming back to a second home—a place where I am known, valued, and supported.
