Eclectic, talented, diverse, smart, and driven are just a few of the adjectives used to describe Olin’s MBA Class of 2017 in a detailed profile on the Poets & Quants website.
The opening paragraph will make you want to read more:
How is this for an eclectic class? At one end, you’ll find Richa Gangopadhyay, a former Miss India USA who has starred in Tollywood blockbusters alongside celebrities like Daggubati Venkatesh and Dhanush. At the other end, there is Markey Culver, who founded The Women’s Bakery, whose business model is designed to provide jobs for women in Rwanda and Tanzania. In between, you’ll find West Point’s Danny Henry, who went from being a U.S. Army Infantry Officer to a business development manager. Or, how about Cambrie Nelson, a middle and high school history teacher who co-founded a social impact firm that develops events and training for community partners.
