Mr. Low GPA Pre-Med To Big4

About Me:

Went into college as a biomedical sciences/premed major and in ROTC. My goal my entire life was to go into the US Army and work in the medical services. I also played D1 Rugby at my university as well, and worked about 30 hours a week my entire time at school. Fell into Big4 tech advisory by chance. Advocated for myself.

Big Life Wins:

I suffered a horrible rotator cuff tear during a rugby game. This suddenly ended my hopes to serve in the military. After this, I did horrible in school. I finally found my passion in economics and came back. I applied to a big4 firm, fought tooth and nail with very low GPA, and created success for myself.

Post MBA Goal:

I would like to transition into a finance role in the BCM industry post MBA. I am very interested in Treasury/FP&A/Corporate finance. I already advice within the BCM sector, but at my big4 firm, I am on the tech side, and so I am hoping to get into the finance side of BCM.
