Just got the official email: I’m set to graduate with my MBA from the Boston University OMBA program in January 2026.
Feels surreal to say that. Feels like it was just yesterday that I’ve had my very first class.
When I started this journey, I wasn’t chasing a degree, I was thirsty for growth. I wanted to learn. I wanted answers to questions like:
- How do product, UX, and strategy really work together at a systems level?
- How do you align users, teams, and business goals when incentives clash?
- And how do you evolve from problem solver to the person who defines the right problem?
The MBA at Boston University has been a pressure cooker for all of that, and so much more.
- Working a full-time job
- Showing up for my wife and daughter
- Carving out time to prioritize my health
- Studying late into the night
- Balancing deadlines while carrying the emotional and mental toll of watching conflict unfold back home
There were nights I genuinely wondered how I was going to keep it all together. And somehow, I did - mostly because I did the one thing I knew to do:
Keep walking.
Only one semester left now (and a bit of this one too).
The finish line is in sight - January 2026, here I come.
(And maybe… a well-deserved break?)
Funny thing is… it’s 2:05AM, and I’m still studying, and I’m already starting to miss it.
