I began my journey at Duke as a freshman with his heart set on becoming a surgeon. The more new classes and topics I discovered, the more I realized my real interest lay in social policy, specifically health policy. I kept working towards my pre-med requirements, but also declared as a Public Policy major. In my junior year, I finally admitted to myself that I didn’t want to pursue medicine right out of college. But because I decided so late, I never got a chance to take undergraduate quantitative and entrepreneurial classes. So, when I heard about the MMS program and that it included those courses, I pounced on the opportunity and here I am today!
I worked as a consultant for OT&P Healthcare, one of Hong Kong’s largest private medical providers. I was tasked with creating and leading an internship program that took interns on an 8-week journey through the firm’s divisions. I realized there was so much to learn on a more formal basis with regard to business operations.
I will be working at EY in their Technology Consulting service line. The consulting space is fascinating, fast-paced, addresses multiple industries, and solves the most unique problems. EY is committed to leveraging new technologies and has a global presence. EY’s consulting potential comes from their core business practice, and they are well-suited to provide experience-based recommendations.
