After spending about a year in banking, I transitioned into the necessary classes that would prepare for my entry into the accelerated MBA program at OCU. I successfully completed the program, with honors and acquired an additional emphasis on leadership and organizational development. My purpose in the 'change of track' from my previous degree (B.S. in Biological Sciences/Pre-med) was to temper my scientific knowledge with solid leadership and business knowledge that would provide a rich toolkit, on my path forward.
