I'm happy to share that I have been accepted into the MBA program at the Gies College of Business - University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign! I guess this is technically me saying goodbye to my free time for the next 2 years!..This truly is an exciting opportunity for me, as the Gies College of Business was named the MBA Program of the Year in 2022 by Poets & Quants, the leading source for information on graduate business education. In addition, Illinois has consistently ranked as one of the top universities in the country, and was recently named one of the "New Ivies" by Forbes Magazine this year. A huge thank you to everyone who has supported me in my career and ambitions (Hannah Amber, BCBA, Gregg Amber, Kathleen O'Keefe, Dan D., Ruthann McCracken, Robert J. Makheja, Kathy Buyna, Rachel Corley, Spencer Powell, Amber Bashian, Josh Wickman, just to name a few!) – your encouragement, guidance, and support has been invaluable. Here’s to the journey ahead and the opportunities it brings! I will miss you, weekends...I-L-L!University of Illinois Urbana-ChampaignGies College of Business - University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign#MBA #GiesBusiness #UniversityofIllinois #WeAreGies #GiesiMBA #Illini
