Big Life Wins:

– I recently transitioned from a Big4 firm to MBB. – It’s not much, but I’m in the progress of teaching myself web dev and app development tech and frameworks. Coming from a mechanical background this is all very different to me but the progress is good and I’m proud of myself for continuous learning even outside of school.

I’m looking to become a technical project manager after MBA/MS and eventually a c-suite executive at a tech firm that makes physical products, preferably automotive. *correction, class of 2025 not class of 2023.
