Jala

Class of 2026

Hi, my name is Jala. I’m from Chicago, Illinois, and am currently a sophomore BBA student. I am concentrating in Consulting with a Technology emphasis. I am passionate about technology and the intersections between technology, humanity, and business.

As a sophomore transfer student, I can attest that Ross has been everything and more than I imagined. All stemming from the profound Michigan experience, Ross has provided me with a plethora of resources and given me so many invaluable networks. Notably, the Business+Tech community, peer mentors from the CDO, and the perfect study spaces.
Every day, I look forward to the community of Ross students. Everyone is excited to be here, to learn, to network, and the environment fosters tons of learning academically and professionally. I am beyond happy to be representing the BBA program and am so happy to work with anyone who has any questions. Forever, Go Blue!

What is your favorite Starbucks drink?
