The past years at Bain & Company have been truly exciting. Every day, I had the privilege of working alongside brilliant colleagues, tackling complex challenges, and constantly being pushed beyond my comfort zone.   ✨ Today, I’m thrilled to share that I have just arrived in Barcelona to begin my Full-time MBA journey at the Esade Business School. ✨   It feels surreal to officially turn the page to this next chapter after months of applications, decisions, and anticipation. The year ahead will be about learning and embracing challenges. But most of all, it is about the people I will meet along the way and the opportunities to build something bigger together.   I'm deeply grateful to everyone who supported me throughout this journey, especially Kathrin Liesenberg, Emil Ratz, Andreas Teufl, Oliver Siemes and David Stahl - it truly would not have been possible without you!   P.S. If you find yourself in Barcelona over the next ~12 months, I’d love to connect - just drop me a message! 🚀
