The people at Fuqua are always willing to help you and are genuinely curious about who you are as a person. I noticed this consistently at admissions events, during my admissions interview, and as I reached out to current and former students. I was also interested in the Health Sector Management certificate. I realized this would allow me the opportunity to explore areas within the field of health care that I hadn’t experienced yet while also gaining access to speakers and resources from Duke’s world-class health care and research system.
I completed an operations engineering development program at Baxter, a large pharmaceutical and medical device company. I then worked as a health care consultant for a provider staffing group and boutique management consulting firm, where I implemented a value-based care program and found ways to reduce health care spending for payors.
I will be working in management consulting at Boston Consulting Group, focusing on health care projects. Access to health care and appropriate health care delivery is a human right. My ultimate goal is to apply what I’ve learned in business, strategy, and operations to improve access and delivery of health care in the U.S. and internationally.
Everyone at Fuqua has a dream about something they would like to accomplish at Fuqua, in their family, in the world, or in their community. The focus isn't only on individual accomplishments. I’ve also found that everyone has something to offer one another. I’ve never left a conversation with another Fuquan without receiving help or advice.
