Samford University, and especially the business school, made a significant impact on my life. I was a transfer student that had lost focus and was unimpressed with school. In just a short amount of time on campus, I noticed there was something different about the students and the professors at Samford. The students had a passion for learning that was inspiring and contagious. The professors, with so much experience outside the classroom, were there not only to teach you but also to mentor you and prepare you for life after graduation. From business plan writing competitions to managing an investment fund worth more than $1 million, the business school gave me hands-on experience that I use in leading our company everyday. Most importantly, the Brock School of Business taught me how to learn and that alone has forever changed my life.

Samford University provided me with an excellent education that met my flexible work needs. I was a newly hired Governmental Resources Analyst with Alabama Power Company when I began the MBA program. Over the years, the Administration was supportive as I needed to adjust my workload and schedule in order to accommodate various job opportunities. The professors encouraged an open teaching environment that fostered leadership, teamwork and collaboration. I honed critical analytical skills while working with and leading groups of other bright, inquisitive students; I continue to leverage those skills with my employees. The student mix provided viewpoints from a diverse mix of backgrounds. These collective experiences provided a powerful dialogue for problem solving both inside and outside of the classroom.
As an alum, I continue to reap the benefits of completing a degree from The Brock School of Business. Samford University offers a variety of valuable networking opportunities in the classroom and as a graduate. The Administration and Faculty are actively engaged in supporting post-graduate networking and continuous learning opportunities.
