MBA Ambassador

Grace ChristensenHello everyone!

My name is Grace, and I grew up on a farm in Iowa. I am a concurrent MBA student. I have had many internships in production animal agriculture and the swine industry, working for Choice Genetics, Cargill Animal Nutrition, Iowa Pork Producers Association, and the United States Senate. I chose to enter the concurrent MBA program to have a unique portfolio of both technical animal science skills with a managerial and business-related mindset. I enjoy being active in school with clubs and case competitions and other activites. I look forward to connecting with you and helping you make the decision to enter a great MBA program!
