Hi Mr. MPP/MBA! You’ve got ambitious plans, but I don’t have a lot of detail here to understand what problem exactly you care about solving in the world, nor how and why you need the dual degree to make your dreams a reality. Normally folks like you have a very clear vision of what kind of change they want to make and how their past experience informs it.

Good luck! Warmly, Julie-Anne Heafey, …
