Big Life Wins:

I was 1 of ~5 folks asked to step into a specialized software dev role for 6 months and support the business growth in GenAI – developing client-facing GenAI software solutions and leading internal AI upskill meetings with >100 people. This led to a 6-month rotation on a specialized PE diligence team combining the PE toolkit with tech know-how.

Post MBA Goal:

I’ve always been interested in tech/engineering and emerging markets. Post MBA I’d like to combine these passions and find roles in tech/engineering (or related i.e product, impact VC) roles in Africa that allow me to create a meaningful impact on people’s quality of life leveraging MBB strategic skills and my accumulated engineering skills. I intend to use MBB to prove out the concept and the MBA to build credibility + transition to the role.
