Why did you choose John Molson School of Business? It was my first choice because of the availability of electives, the best return on investment and the school's international reputation. In addition, the Co-op internship program provides an opportunity to work in some globally-renowned organizations. 

Highlights of the program: As a part of my Co-op program, I completed an eight-month internship at Bombardier which is one of the world's most reputed companies. I also worked as a member of two student clubs: the International Community Outreach Program and Speaker Series. My involvement gave me an amazing amount of experience in event organization and coordination. I participated in a trip to South Africa to attend a conference with the travel grant from Golden Key International Honour society, which was a great highlight of my program. During the MBA program, I started the preparation for  the CFA charter, and I cleared Level I & Level II of CFA program with an above 90th percentile score in both levels. 

Favourite place in Montreal? Old Port & Mont-Royal

Future aspirations: I want to work in Capital Markets and I aspire to help people in getting the best returns on their investments.  

What do you wish you knew before joining the program? I wish that I could have known more about the city before starting.
