What has been the greatest success of your career so far?

I continually seize new opportunities and challenge myself by moving into new areas of the business, which led to me becoming Director of Digital Commerce in the global team at GSK CH (now Haleon) where I had the opportunity to work globally across all markets and help shape digital commerce strategy and direction.

When you think of your school, what is the first word that comes to mind?

Community. You build strong and lasting relationships with the rest of the cohort around the world, learning from each other and growing together.

What were one or two key aspects of this program that made you choose this program and why were they important to you?

One of the main reasons I chose this MBA was the fact that it was a global MBA and I wanted to continue building experience, insights and networks in a global group in a global role. In addition, there is a focus on data as a basis for decision making, which is fundamental for my career in consumer goods and digital.
