What was your previous industry/occupation?

Healthcare / Consulting

What industry do you plan on entering?

Healthcare / Finance

Why did you choose Marshall?

I chose Marshall because of the professors and future students I met during Admit Weekend; the Trojan network; the small size of the program; the location of the school; and the overall energy and camaraderie of the current Marshall MBAs.

What surprised you the most about Marshall?

I was most surprised about how close-knit the community at Marshall is. Even though the students live all over LA, we still make it a priority to meet up with each other after class and on the weekends.

Favorite USC Marshall Core Class:

Accounting with Professor Beatty.

Favorite USC Marshall experience:

Challenge for Charity (C4C) parties and the Los Prietos camping trip.

What you wish you knew before attending business school?

It's important to take advantage of every opportunity you can while you're at Marshall.  Whether it's a school project, a charity event, or a social gathering, put yourself out there as you never know whom you might meet or what you can learn.
