    Director of Business Operations

    Isenberg School of Management, Finance

    Running a $200,000 business with a 25% profit margin taught me more than any class could. I learned how to lead a team, make hard decisions, and own every result. Building NextGen Business Leaders is my way of giving other students that same chance to grow.

    Inside Business Operations Manager

    Isenberg School of Management, Finance

    Being mentored by our DBO changed the way I think about business. As a Sector Manager, I ran a $150,000 business in Greater Boston and learned how to lead under pressure. That work earned me a promotion to Inside Business Operations Manager, where I now help other managers succeed.

    My job is to make sure our managers have what they need out in the field to do great work. This summer showed me how much students can grow when they get real responsibility and real support. I am proud to be part of a team that helps people find out what they can do.
