Duke MMS Student Blog

It doesn’t seem long ago that I first entered the halls of my dream school, and yet here I am, already reminiscing on my time at Fuqua.

As a devotee of Steve Jobs and his disruptive approach to marketing, I always knew I’d wind up a marketing guy somewhere down the line.

As I took classes at Fuqua, I realized there were so many areas of business I had never considered going into.

I am deeply grateful to Fuqua for being such an important part of my life.

Six months went by in a blink of an eye. There were so many memorable moments during this period that it was tough to narrow them down to a few.

The diversity at Fuqua can allow you to expand your passion, whatever that may be.

Climbing has always been my safe haven, and I am grateful that Fuqua actively supports me in sharing my passion with my classmates.

In recent years, there has been strong representation from Duke student-athletes in the MMS: FOB program. As a member of the Track & Field team, I have been able to experience the balance between academics and athletics at Duke.

Fall break might be just a break for most of the students, but for some in our community, it was more than just that.

I knew MMS would help bridge the gaps in my college experience caused by the pandemic. What I did not know, however, was that every day I would get the chance to look back and see firsthand how much of a life-changing opportunity attending Duke and Fuqua was for me.
