What degree Did you complete and why?

Why did you choose the Belk College of Business over others?

I recognized how highly regarded UNC Charlotte is for all of its programs, and when I learned that the M.S. in Management program was being introduced for the first time, and that it offered an exceptionally diverse range of courses in an accelerated 10.5 month program, I knew that this is exactly what I wanted to do.

I am honored to have the role of the M.S. in Management Marketing Ambassador, as it allowed me the opportunity to share my passion for the program with the community. I looked forward to attending many events throughout the year so that I could continue to share my experiences with others.

I never believed that any program could stimulate such a higher level of understanding of a variety of concepts and principles. This has made the learning process extremely engaging and rewarding. It is thrilling to know that by applying these varying degrees of competences gained throughout the program this will result in me becoming highly skilled in management and ready to take on the business world.
