Emma Haggarty

My name is Emma Haggarty, a member of the 2027 Cohort for the Weekend MBA. I am from the Metro-Detroit area originally and attended undergrad at Oakland University (Go Grizzlies!). I majored in Marketing with a focus on business analytics and landed a job at General Motors . I have held different roles within the Aftersales organization at General Motors. Working on accessories, learning the vehicle portfolio, and now managing one our National Retailer Accounts. I bring positive energy, attention to detail and communication skills to my day job as well as my personal life. 

Pursuing a Ross MBA was always a dream of mine. I knew I wanted to Go Blue, I just wasn't sure when the right time was. Shocker, there is no right time, it is entirely your decision. I can speak to it being a wonderful decision so far. With my MBA I wanted to further my communication, analytical and develop deep corporate strategy skills while undertaking the robust curriculum Ross offers. What truly sold me on the Ross experience was the ability to put the skills learned in the classroom not only to my day job on Monday, but also the MAP project. Ross provides top-of-the line opportunities to their students and I can't wait to share this with others. 

I am looking forward to talking about applications, concerns about work-life balance with school, becoming a member of the Ross Leader Academy, and the recruiting process for internships and full-time roles.
