When I first started the program, I doubted my leadership skills. I had been taught to believe that the leaders who advanced within a company were those who were overly charismatic and extroverted, and I did not see those attributes in myself. Through the program, though, I came to understand leadership in its true form and was provided with the tools to draw out the skills I did not realize I already had. As a leader, I believe that I have been transformed the most by the examples set by my classmates. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from such intelligent individuals.
I oversaw marketing at Moog Music Inc., a music company that manufactures iconic synthesizers used by well-known artists such as Dr. Dre and Hans Zimmer. My responsibilities were leading branding for the company and marketing strategy for the company's annual music and technology festival, Moogfest.
I started Juniper & Berkeley, a sports management company that represents professional female athletes across a range of sports. Fuqua gave me the confidence to start my own business and leap into a new industry—sports. I plan to continue building my company and fiercely fight to shift the way professional female athletes are valued.
