Austyn Tempesta

Why did you decide to do an MBA? 

I wanted to learn more about specific areas of the business that are harder to learn on my own like, strategy, product-market fit, marketing, and management. I also wanted to make friends.

What are your career aspiration after completing the course? 

I want to either go into consultant, finance, technology on product/marketing, lecturer/do research in academia or start my own venture.
