Business Education

As an entrepreneur, I pursued an MBA to gain the necessary tools and skills to successfully create and sustain a corporation. I worked on a number of projects through the entrepreneurship track at the USC Marshall School of Business which helped me to prepare to launch my first company upon completing business school. I had the opportunity to meet and interact with outstanding local and international entrepreneurs with inspiring life stories, including Pete Carol, the founder of Red Mango, Kogi, Kinko’s, Urth Cafe, Condomania and many more, who provided me with invaluable anecdotes and tales from their start ups.

Plans for the Future

I have already launched my first company, House Call, MD and have put my MBA training to good use in the process. From marketing to cash flow to public speaking, I’ve used almost every aspect of my MBA in the first year of operation. When I complete my residency training, I plan to open an integrated outpatient care model. At this time, I will again hope to draw upon my MBA.
