As I close the chapter on my full-time MBA at Cambridge Judge Business School, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey that brought me here. From collaborating on healthcare projects with globally leaders in Johnson & Johnson, The World Bank Group and Novartis, to forging lifelong friendships with classmates from every corner of the world – it’s been an extraordinary privilege to learn and grow alongside so many brilliant minds. Walking the same historic streets as Nobel laureates like Einstein, Alan Turing, Watson and Crick, and drawing inspiration from the King’s E-Lab Entrepreneurship community, I have felt constantly motivated to push my own boundaries.
Matriculating in King’s College Chapel
Stepping into the awe-inspiring King’s College Chapel – founded in 1446 and renowned for its spectacular Gothic fan-vault ceiling – was a moment I will never forget. Its soaring vaults and intricate stonework have borne witness to centuries of scholars, and I’m honoured to join that legacy.
St. Catharine’s College May Ball
Then came an unforgettable night of Vegas themed dancing and entertainment at St Catharine’s College Cambridge, where laughter and celebration filled the college campus – and we capped it all off with the now-iconic, “Cambridge Survivors” photo, a testament to the friendships and memories we’ve made together.
Negotiations Masterclass
One of the highlights of my academic journey was our negotiations course – complete with multiple role-plays, real-world case studies, and concluding with deep dives into the Brexit negotiations. The practical insights and key takeaways have already reshaped how I approach complex discussions and collaborations in business development in Healthcare.
And as if wrapping up an MBA weren’t enough, I also crossed the finish line of my very first half marathon this morning! It’s been a busy, rewarding, and – dare I say – fun adventure, and I’m so grateful for everyone who supported me along the way.
This journey was possible because of many champions, thank you for being there for me! Here’s to new challenges and exciting chapters in 2025!
