What attracted you to WSU's Mike Ilitch School of Business?
Overall, I was attracted to Wayne State University for having a safe campus, nestled in the hustle and bustle of Midtown Detroit. Plus, the university is in my hometown, so I just couldn't stay away from the opportunity to study right in my own backyard of Detroit. When I thought of Mike Ilitch School of Business, I found out that the programs are what I have been looking for when I thought of pursuing my Bachelor in Business Administration. The campus, being right in the heart of Detroit, Michigan, also presented me with more access to the different companies and industries, such as the Big 3 of the automotive industry.

Post-Grad Plans: My plans, right after graduation, is to further continue my education with an MBA, while starting in a career with a combined focus between Information Systems Management and Human Resources. I hope that after graduating with an MBA, I can pursue a PhD in Business Administration when the opportunity arises. While keeping plans on furthering my education, I would like to accomplish my dream of being an Entrepreneur. After all, there are problems that need solutions and I can be there to help solve them.
