Why did you choose the John Molson School of Business?
I strongly believe that networking is imperative to professional success. Forging connections with professionals in the industry and having someone champion your candidacy will provide the career opportunities I seek post-MBA. While pursuing the John Molson MBA, I was confident that I would be able to connect with influential executives and professionals, and build long-lasting relationships.

Highlights of program: 
Organizing the John Molson MBA International Case Competition was the most challenging experience of my MBA. By working at such a prestigious and high-caliber event, I greatly improved my communication skills.

Future aspirations: 
After gaining extensive experience in the aerospace and packaging industries in Canada, my career trajectory is set towards securing a position as a Senior Manager or Sourcing Director within the next five years. Concurrently, I work as a part-time admissions consultant, a position I find deeply rewarding. I am committed to guiding students towards their academic aspirations and helping them gain admission to their dream universities. Additionally, I am actively developing my skills in Futures and Options trading, a field that has captured my interest. This pursuit allows me to explore financial markets and expand my knowledge in investment strategies.  

Your advice for future students:
John Molson offers a lot of experiential activities that MBA students can take full advantage of. Unfortunately, before coming, I did not know anyone who could help me with my queries and suggest the right path forward.
