Meet classmates Luisa Santiago, Alexander Kuziel, and Andrew Murphy! Veterans coupling skills they've developed in the military with an MBA while transitioning into careers in the business world. Javier and Bola explore ways they've incorporated strategic thinking, problem-solving, and prior leadership experience with their newly developed business mindset.

In this episode, Luisa, a former Judge Advocate General Corps (JAG), shares the leadership traits she adopted over the years from great leaders. Highlighting the Kenan-Flagler Core Values, Teamwork resonated the most with Alexander, a former Army Special Operations Manager. Alex talks about how the Executive MBA Program provides the opportunity to work in small teams and how, in this setting, you get to know your classmates better. Andrew, a former Marine and now a Consultant, reveals that he needed to strengthen his skills toolbox to compete in business.

Our guests were gracious enough to share their personal stories and respective journeys to UNC. Their love of Carolina and all it has to offer by way of KFBS prompted their glowing recommendations to all prospective Veterans interested in Kenan-Flagler Business School.
