Join us for this dinner session in our Grad School Alum Connections series, bringing aMAIZing LSA alums together with students to share their journeys in and beyond grad school. Ifeoma (Ify, pronounced ee-fee) graduated in 2017 from LSA with a major in International Studies, and then went on to get her Masters of Management Studies degree at Kellogg, Northwestern University in 2018. Ify started her career in advertising as a brand strategist working with brands like Unilever, PepsiCo, Johnny Walker, Hershey’s, OnStar, and Amazon before pivoting into tech and working for Twitter as a product marketing manager and now at Zillow working where she's focused on its mobile app growth. She's based in Chicago where she enjoys cooking, throwing dinner parties, trying new restaurants, working out, and traveling.

Join Ify in this in-person session to ask her any and all questions you may have about pursuing a business grad degree. She is excited to share her experience, her thoughts on the process of applying to grad school, navigating grad school and tech marketing as a BIPOC woman, and creating a balance of professional and personal fulfillment in and beyond grad school.
