See your future

“I found [my degree] to be extremely energizing, as it made me excited about the prospect of eventually becoming an entrepreneur and opened my eyes to the many possibilities entrepreneurship could offer. I remember that I actually drafted the business plan for my first company while I was still a student, and used that plan as the base for opening my marketing agency 10 years later.”

—Toti Cadavid ‘95, President, U-Fulfilled
