To be very honest, I had a strong gut feeling that it would be the right place for me.
When it comes to more tangible aspects, my decision was greatly influenced by the people I had spoken to when I was applying. They solidified the concept of Fuqua being defined by family and community ties. It showed me that “Team Fuqua” isn’t just a buzzword manufactured for a brochure, and that it not only exists, but is inculcated into everyone who passes through these hallways.
Lastly, as someone with no business background, I was most enticed by the promise of experiential learning and an extensive curriculum.
I have always been creatively and linguistically inclined. My volunteer, freelance, and professional work experience includes the fields of content creation, copywriting, brand marketing, and communications, as well as linguistic analysis in the insurance domain.
My desire to upskill and take on a more creative, and client-facing role pushed me towards pursuing an MMS. After graduating, I am keen on pursuing a career in international business development and strategic communications.
Fuqua’s ethos is centered around the Decency Quotient, and as such, the core values of the community they’ve built mirror exactly this. The MMS:FOB student body is incredibly diverse, and although there are more than 200 talented minds and driven individuals intermingling, there is a perpetual feeling of being supported. People really care about helping others succeed, and it's a great feeling to be a part of something bigger than yourself.
