Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

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

These experiences and learnings have not only prepared me for the business world but have also shaped me into a more resilient and empathetic individual.

Pursuing an MBA at Fuqua has been a transformative experience, made possible by the support of friends, classmates, and others.

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

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.

Now that I have graduated with my MBA from Fuqua, it’s a great opportunity to pause, look back, and thank myself for this gift that I gave myself.

For anyone, getting your MBA means becoming a master in multitasking and prioritizing, but taking on the program with three kids and your partner as your classmate—those skills jump to a new level.
