My desired career path is to start as an associate within the healthcare industry group at an investment bank such as Piper Jaffray 8: Co. or Morgan Stanley in New York. Afterward, I intend to transition to a vice president position at a healthcare investment firm that invests in innovative healthcare technology companies. With over $13 billion of invested capital in healthcare companies last year, I believe this is an opportune time to be part of a rapidly evolving industry Since my career to date, 1 have provided financial statement audits and investment transaction advisory services to my firms’ clients primarily in the healthcare industry.
My experience has taught me technical skills in financial accounting and financial due diligence and soft skills in managing projects and teams that will be important in my career path. In addition, I have learned about some of the challenges within the healthcare sector: delayed patient care, inefficient revenue to cash cycles, and growing administrative costs. From working on the financial due diligence of corporate transactions, 1 have seen some of the emerging healthcare technologies used to solve these challenges. For instance, I recently worked with a company that created innovative digital diagnostics for diabetes that improves patient care.
Working on the financial diligence aspect of these healthcare transactions has been exciting and rewarding; however, I wish to be exposed to the additional aspects of the investment process such as deal sourcing and strategic analyses that an investment banking position can provide. This transition will allow me to start fulfilling my goals of assisting emerging healthcare technology companies in obtaining need financial capital. i believe obtaining an MBA from Ross best prepares me with the financial acumen and strategic analytical skills demanded by my post-MBA goal.
