After graduating from the University of Florida, I moved across the country to Portland, Oregon. I spent four years working at Nike in both digital and category brand marketing roles. I decided to return to school to pursue my MBA in order to develop my core business knowledge in functions outside of marketing to set myself up for a role in brand management post-graduation. I chose Ross because of its on-campus culture, action-based learning programs, and international opportunities available during the course of the program.
