My focus on the development of my professional skillset has led me through several transitions in my career, starting in public health, moving on to hospitality start-ups, and finally working in private equity real estate investing. Each time, I have been confronted with a gap in my knowledge of people, real estate, and applied experiences, and each time I’ve grown an amount commensurate with said gap. I continue to seek out further challenges to realize my full potential, and thus, create more value for everyone I interact with.

I started my professional work experience as a marketing research assistant in the residential real estate sector, which is odd considering my education background in life sciences and music. Going into my undergraduate studies, I didn’t have a clear direction as to what I wanted to do . I had chosen sciences as it was something I felt I was good at, rather than wanting to pursue a career in it. Having realized that this wasn’t a good fit for me nearing the end of my studies, I took a job in the in an unrelated field and found my passion for real estate and infrastructure. Having gained some experience in the residential market, I saw the COVID -19 pandemic as an opportunity to pursue an MBA at Schulich to further my business acumen and learn from leading figures in the real estate industry.

Closing Remarks
Real Estate & Infrastructure at Schulich
Schulich has a strong and innovative tradition in real estate and infrastructure education. Founded in 1991, the MBA Program in Real Estate & Infrastructure is well established, highly regarded by industry and connected to a sizeable, engaged global alumni network. The school was well ahead of the curve in introducing infrastructure to the curriculum, seeing the need in an expanding industry and the natural connection with cities and real estate. The 12-month full-time Master in Real Estate & Infrastructure (MREI), introduced in 2017, builds upon the reputation and expertise of the MBA specialization. The MREI equips students with a distinctive combination of subject matter expertise, integrative and critical thinking skills and industry knowledge necessary for successful careers in both real estate and infrastructure. In addition to a three-term leadership development class, core courses focus on valuation techniques, legal and regulatory frameworks, investment and business structures, sustainability, planning and design issues, and the project life cycle. In a capstone course, students apply theory in a collaborative framework by tackling real-world industry challenges that encompass social, environmental and business considerations from both local and global perspectives. Graduates work in real estate and infrastructure development, investment and portfolio management, project finance and consulting. They are employed by developers, real estate investment trusts, pension funds and advisory firms, financial institutions, brokerage and consulting firms. Some are entrepreneurs launching their own firms.
The MBA specialization and MREI programs are housed within the new Brookfield Centre in Real Estate and Infrastructure that capitalizes on a strong network of alumni and other industry participants and supports a wide variety of in-class experiential learning and cocurricular activities, that include joint venture negotiation simulations, an infrastructure innovation competition, the New York City and Montreal study tours, the Developers’ Den international case competition, the annual Perspectives Lecture, and the Student Real Estate & Infrastructure Club (SREIC). At the undergraduate level, students in Schulich’s Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree program take courses in real estate finance and development and have the opportunity to get involved in SREIC and other co- curricular activities alongside their MBA and MREI colleagues. Schulich students also enjoy access to the Centre for Career Design (CCD), Schulich’s in-house team of certified Career Coaches and Industry Advisors.
The Brookfield Centre in Real Estate & Infrastructure is committed to advancing the understanding of the real estate and infrastructure fields and their growing integration. The Brookfield Centre distinguishes itself by providing excellence and innovation in education via both topic coverage and experiential learning, applied research, thought leadership, industry outreach and connection.
