Previous position:
Tax Consultant, KPMG
Prior to TiasNimbas, I was a Tax Consultant at KPMG. I wanted to switch directions in my career and felt that an MBA was necessary to make myself marketable in a field outside of tax.
The timing was perfect, as I had worked long enough to learn the essential principles of working in a professional environment, yet I was not too far into my career that this switch would create a big setback.
In choosing a school, I looked for an academic environment where personal interests are recognized and strong relationships could be built with fellow students from diverse backgrounds, as I found this to be the most enriching aspect of my graduate experience at Columbia University.
I was therefore immediately drawn to the International Full-Time MBA programme at TiasNimbas, where great emphasis is placed on personal development.
You not only learn to become effective leaders, you also work to become confident, self-driven individuals. And as was my experience at Columbia, the small student-body size creates an approachable environment, where you find yourself amongst remarkable, talented individuals from all over the world who constantly challenge and expand your perspective.
