Prior to Ross, I worked as an engineer in the semiconductor industry, with experiences in both chip design and manufacturing. I held roles at TSMC and Qualcomm, where my focus was on product management. In these positions, I collaborated extensively with cross-functional teams, including design, supply chain, operations, and quality, to develop products. I also worked closely with customers to ensure their needs were met, which further enhanced my ability to navigate complex, customer-centric environments.

As I took on more responsibilities and helped deliver more products, I realized that I wanted to have a greater influence on defining the product itself. Additionally, I developed a growing desire to better understand strategy and market dynamics. This realization ultimately led me to pursue my MBA journey.

When I connected with Ross ambassadors during my application process, I felt their genuine eagerness to help. They introduced me to other Rossers with similar backgrounds, which made me feel truly welcomed and supported. This strong sense of community confirmed me that Ross was the place where I belonged. Additionally, the school's action-based learning approach was a major reason I chose Ross, as I believe in learning through real-world experiences.

Now that I’m at Ross, I’m excited to give back what I've received and contribute to this supportive community. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out! Go Blue!
