Julia LaFlair, Senior Account Coordinator at CoverMyMeds and will complete the MBA Program in 2025. Her free time is spent investigating "how prescription opioids (specifically Oxycontin) created an epidemic in America." Consider adding Dopesick by Beth Macy, "a great book about the opioid epidemic in America turned Hulu series!" to your reading list.
Her favorite course was MBA 6400 Strategic Marketing with Melissa Fisher, "It was my undergraduate major and it was really cool learning about marketing at the graduate level."
Julia advises students to "Ask for help! I've never met a professor that didn't like helping me when I asked. It's been the reason I've been so successful in classes that were incredibly challenging for me." Followed by Ferris Bueller quote, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it."
