My journey at Wake Forest has been one of growth, exploration, and purpose. As a Business & Enterprise Management major with a concentration in Management Consulting, I gravitated toward strategy-focused work early on, which led me to pursue internships at Deloitte and Boston Consulting Group. These experiences confirmed my passion for solving complex problems and helped me understand the impact of strong, values-driven leadership. Outside the classroom, I leaned into opportunities that allowed me to grow beyond academics—helping lead student organizations like Bridging the Gap, serving as a President’s Aide, and building a YouTube channel where I share my college and career journey. For students thinking about their own path, my advice is to seek out guidance early. I benefited greatly from career coaches in the business school, OPCD advisors, upperclassmen mentors at Wake, and national networks like Bridging the Gap. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, take initiative, and stay grounded in your purpose—the combination of hustle and humility can take you far.
