Prior to Ross, my career journey took me through a diverse range of industries and roles. I began my professional journey as a structurer and trader in the capital markets sector, working with major banks in Mumbai and Bangalore for seven years. Following this, I transitioned into a role as a product manager for a leading E-commerce company, where I was responsible for enhancing the Search Customer Experience.
My decision to pursue an MBA at Ross stemmed from my desire to pivot into the technology or consulting fields, enrich my skill set, and further cultivate my leadership abilities. I was drawn to Ross due to its dynamic alumni network, its leadership programs, the abundant opportunities it offers in consulting and technology, and its strong emphasis on action-based learning. Specifically, the MAP (Multidisciplinary Action Projects) experience at Ross resonated with my goal of gaining exposure to different functions and industries.
Prior to enrolling at Ross, I proactively engaged with current students and alumni, and their insights reinforced my belief that I was entering a close-knit and supportive community. If you have any questions about the Ross experience, please do not hesitate to reach out. Go Blue!
