Undergraduate Institution: UNC
Pre-MBA: Business Developer, General Mills
Summer Internship: Procter and Gamble (P&G), Marketing
Favorite Academic Experience: Global Institutions and Environments (GIE) with Prof Schipper. The cold calls kept me on my toes and the cases challenged me dig into concepts I hadn't paid a lot of attention to before. Best Thing About Fuqua: Being surrounded by so many different cultures and languages and being able to build intertwined friendships through them all.
Words of Wisdom: Before stepping foot on campus, make of list of the skills you want to build or the experiences you want to gain while at Fuqua. Stay focused on those things, but give yourself the flexibility to learn/accomplish them through a variety of classes and activities.
