Richa Gangopadhyay Instagram – Congratulations to Class of 2020! I’m seeing so many innovative ways graduates are celebrating amidst covid world, which truly warms my heart. 🎓💯⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ It’s crazy to think that I was in student-mode for two years after living through a surreal experience as an actress in India just prior. Graduating (in 2017) with an MBA from Washington University in St. Louis- Olin Business School gave me a sense of fulfillment and newfound purpose to start yet another, new journey as a healthcare management consultant. I will forever be grateful to the faculty and administration at #WashU for not only admitting me into one of the top business schools in the country, but celebrating my nontraditional background.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ I spent my final days shooting for my last film Bhai (Telugu) studying for my GMAT. 🤭 I don’t think anyone knew that’s what I was doing in my spare time, in between shots 💁🏻‍♀️. But it paid off, and it was the MBA program that not only shaped another career path for me, but introduced me to my husband!⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ 📚👨🏼‍💻👩🏻‍💻➡️👩🏻‍🎓❤️👨🏼‍🎓⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ My story is proof that you can always recalibrate and explore new territory. The notion of “finding your purpose” is ever evolving. Your passion and dreams can change. Be open to what’s out there and keep hustlin. Let your life experiences inspire and lead you. ✨⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ It’s kinda cool to have been able to graduate alongside your beau (which, at the time, we had no idea would happen!)! Thanks WashU, for the incredible memories and unparalleled learning experience.⁣❤️🙏 ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ #mbaclassof2017 #washu #wustl #olinbusinessschool #mba #newcareer #gradschool #forevergrateful St. Louis, Missouri
