Why did you decide to pursue an MBA and what drew you to the SFU Beedie School of Business?

I decided to pursue an MBA to make a greater impact in healthcare, and to expand my ability to drive meaningful change beyond clinical care. I was seeking to understand organizations on a broader scale and to diversify my expertise and saw the MBA as a way to bridge healthcare with business leadership. SFU Beedie stood out for its focus on holistic student cohorts, valuing both individual potential and personal growth. The emphasis on co-curriculars and experiential learning further aligned with my goal of gaining practical skills while participating in leadership opportunities.

What has been your moment or experience at Beedie so far? What are you looking forward to?

Beedie has provided me with a supportive environment to learn and grow alongside peers with diverse backgrounds. I have particularly enjoyed working on real-world problems through case competitions, which have challenged me to think critically and collaborate effectively. Further, leading the Graduate Women’s Council has been meaningful, giving me a platform to uplift other women in business. Moving forward, I am eager to apply the knowledge gained from my courses and the skills developed through co-curriculars to drive meaningful change in the healthcare sector.

How would you describe SFU Beedie’s culture?

Beedie’s culture is supportive and collaborative and maintains a non-judgmental environment where everyone is encouraged to learn and grow. It places a strong emphasis on diversity, equity, inclusion, and ensuring all voices are heard. Beedie also prioritizes critical topics such as Indigenous perspectives, sustainability, and business ethics, preparing students to become thoughtful, responsible leaders.
