Before Kelley, I was an advertising professional servicing a Medicare client. I loved being a part of the brand story, but I wanted to write it, not have it dictated to me. I knew that the Kelley full-time MBA program would help develop me as a leader and enable me to reach my career goals. So, I moved my wife and two kids from Utah to Bloomington, and we’ve loved it.
As a Kelley MBA, I’m a member of various communities. To me, the one that has been the most impactful for my career is the Consumer Marketing Academy. The curricul ..read more

On May 15, 2023, a new chapter began in my life as I stepped into the role of a Product Marketing Manager (PMM) intern at Microsoft. This day was particularly significant, as it brought back vivid memories of my first visit to Microsoft’s Chicago office during the Business Marketing Academy (BMA) Week in October 2022. As I stood in front of the iconic Microsoft logo, I couldn’t help but imagine what it would be like to be a part of this remarkable company. And now, that dream has manifested into a reality, I decided to recreate my look from the visit to the Chicago offi ..read more

Is it worth giving that all up for my dream—i.e., an MBA—at this stage? My gut said, “Yes!”
MBA in India vs the US
I got into all the top MBA colleges in India and had a few offers from the US. I compared the benefits and decided on the US, primarily for exposure. It pro ..read more

Before coming to Kelley, I lived in downtown Atlanta for three and a half years and Midtown Detroit for three years. There is a lot to like about living in a large city, but the constant hustle and bustle was starting to get to me. It is interesting that big cities, while full of people and things to do, can also feel cramped. When it came time to submit my MBA applications, I was looking for a change of scenery that would provide a breath of fresh air.
My first visit to Bloomington was in early February. It was the day after a large snowstorm, and it was cold and clear ..read more
