Post-master’s career goal:
After completing business school, I want to become a Business Analyst in healthcare industry, specifically pharmaceutical companies working in the early drug development phase.

Why choose Wisconsin?
I worked in the pharmaceutical industry back in India as a Project coordinator where I managed activities from raw material procurement to the final finish drug product comprising of many stages such as market research, case evaluation and creating proposal where I realized the constant need for evaluating data to make daily decisions. My journey started with excel charts pivot tables but I needed a strong foundation of data analysis which brought me to this amazing Business Analytics program at Wisconsin School of Business having a rich comprehensive curriculum including cloud computing, robotic process automation, predictive analytics and machine learning that meets the skills required for today and the future. I came here with a purpose to take the pharmaceutical industry to the next level by strategic decision using the right resources and strong skills to contribute in the drug development process. I deeply resonate with the Wisconsin Idea to take my learning beyond the classroom.
