Why do an MBA?
As a negotiator for the UN I felt the need to widen
my perspective even further in order to bring more
value to my career. Doing a global MBA would
fulfill that need and also give me valuable contacts
for my future career trajectory.
What motivates you?
Helping others has been my motivation since my
childhood. It’s the greatest legacy I have from
my parents, and I count myself lucky to be able
to make a living doing work that aligns with my
values. Before Hult I worked at the UN Office for
the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. It was
a great place to fulfill my passion to work as a
humanitarian—as well as having a leadership role.
What makes Hult different?
Hult prepares us for what’s coming after our
studies—a big advantage over traditional schools.
Cross-cultural business is always a challenge and
at Hult it is part of your everyday experience. You
get so used to taking this into consideration that it
becomes natural, as it should be! Hult’s connection
to the real world has made me understand how
my studies will be applied in my future career.
Do you have any “rules to live by”?
Opportunities don’t happen. You create them.
