The decision to pursue my MBA has not come easily, some colleagues and friends supported the idea to continue my education while others though it would hinder my chances at employment considering my level of expertise (not high). I have always planned to get my master's degree and when I found an MBA program that focused on Marketing I thought that would be the perfect program to round out my PR and Advertising background.
