Owen Huang
Guangdong, China

I am very passionate about the intersection of marketing and data science. Coming from a marketing undergraduate program, I worked as a data analyst for growth marketing at Trip.com before coming to Tepper. Here at Tepper, I've gained a great deal of interest in using analytics tools to drive user insights that inform marketing decision-making.

I am a photographer and I've been to 14 countries. I was once an Airbnb Experience Organizer hosting a cultural tour that catered to 60+ international backpackers. I love cultural exchange and understand how cultural diversity shapes our work efficiency and dynamics.

" I love the cohesion and inclusion of the MSBA program and I can always learn something new from my classmates."

 

Olivia Dion
Vermont, USA

I'm a Vermont native and recent graduate from Kenyon College where I attained my Bachelor of Arts degree. I am also currently working part-time as a data analyst intern at an insurance tech startup based in Vermont. I decided to pursue my MSBA at Tepper because of my desire to enter the field and the strength of Tepper's curriculum.

When I'm not working or studying, I enjoy being active and spending my time outside running, hiking, or skiing. I have recently joined the Tepper Outdoor Adventure Club to meet others with the same interests. I am an outgoing and confident individual who is always happy to help others.

"What I value most about the MSBA community is how supported I feel in not only my academics but my career development as well."

Jay Shah
Mumbai, India

I am a soccer fanatic and a huge Lewis Hamilton (Formula 1 racer) fan. I love to take up challenges and test my problem-solving skills.

I completed my bachelor's degree in computer engineering from the University of Mumbai. Following that, I worked at Deloitte as a digital consulting associate.

I have always been a person who loves interacting with new people and would love to help potential candidates during their application process since I was in their shoes just a year ago.

"The most valuable thing about the MSBA community is the connections I’ve made with my classmates which will remain with me all life long."

Sanjit Sokhi
Panchkula,India

Prior to joining the MSBA program at Tepper, I completed my undergrad at SRM University, Chennai, India. Since then, I have gained some valuable industry experience in the field of data analytics by working as an associate at PwC for 1.5 years.

I'm excited to spread the word about Tepper's interdisciplinary MSBA program and help, inspire, and guide aspiring prospective by sharing my-first hand experience going through the application process.

When I am not sitting behind my laptop coding and visualizing data, you will find me cooking, traveling, or exploring restaurants and bars around Pittsburgh.
