The right timing

I had aspired to pursue an MBA ever since I was about to finish college. However, it became possible only three years later, which I can say was even better given the professional and personal maturity I had acquired in the meantime.

Even amid a swirl of things to manage in my current job, getting an MBA in Finance was an appropriate personal decision. The skills that I learned and refined perfectly fit the company’s evolving needs, especially during its Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) processes that I was leading and managing for the very first time.

The youngest student

I started an MBA in Finance at IBMEC (Brazilian Institute of Capital Markets)1, a reference school in finance and business in the country. After passing the admission process, I became the youngest student in my class. According to the program coordinator, my professional experience was adequate and would contribute to an enriching exchange of knowledge in the classroom.
