1
00:00:00,380 --> 00:00:02,520
Throughout my career in retail fashion,

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:03,700
I've seen opportunities

3
00:00:03,700 --> 00:00:07,020
to move the industry towards
a more sustainable model.

4
00:00:07,020 --> 00:00:09,600
I wanted to play a bigger
role in that shift,

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:10,780
but I needed the skills

6
00:00:10,780 --> 00:00:12,640
and knowledge to lead with confidence.

7
00:00:13,580 --> 00:00:15,460
That's when I spoke to UTS.

8
00:00:15,460 --> 00:00:17,600
They recognised my professional experience

9
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,201
and opened the door for
me to begin the MBA.

10
00:00:20,201 --> 00:00:22,821
It felt like an opportunity
to take my experience

11
00:00:22,821 --> 00:00:24,901
and turn it into a chance
to change the future.

12
00:00:25,741 --> 00:00:26,574
UTS being in the heart of
the city made it easy

13
00:00:26,574 --> 00:00:27,407
to come to class after work.

14
00:00:30,021 --> 00:00:33,281
Being here on campus has
been central to my journey.

15
00:00:33,281 --> 00:00:36,661
It's where I built friendships,
found a sense of belonging,

16
00:00:36,661 --> 00:00:38,242
and gained new perspectives

17
00:00:38,242 --> 00:00:40,082
by learning from others' experiences.

18
00:00:41,122 --> 00:00:45,282
The flexibility at UTS has
been essential, allowing me

19
00:00:45,282 --> 00:00:47,602
to balance study with my responsibilities

20
00:00:47,602 --> 00:00:49,902
as a national manager for
a leading fashion brand.

21
00:00:50,882 --> 00:00:53,342
The support from my lecturers
has made it possible

22
00:00:53,342 --> 00:00:56,123
to manage both without compromise.

23
00:00:56,123 --> 00:00:57,643
The learning has been hands-on

24
00:00:57,643 --> 00:00:59,763
and given me a new way of thinking.

25
00:00:59,763 --> 00:01:00,596
I've been able to shape my
MBA around what matters most to me,

26
00:01:00,596 --> 00:01:01,429
which is gaining a deeper
understanding of leadership

27
00:01:06,543 --> 00:01:08,303
and the confidence to make decisions

28
00:01:08,303 --> 00:01:10,723
that create impact far
beyond the bottom line.

29
00:01:11,823 --> 00:01:14,403
Completing my MBA has
opened doors to industries

30
00:01:14,403 --> 00:01:17,224
and opportunities I
never imagined possible.

31
00:01:17,224 --> 00:01:19,244
It hasn't just expanded my career.

32
00:01:19,244 --> 00:01:21,724
It's made me a stronger,
more valuable leader

33
00:01:21,724 --> 00:01:23,444
to every team I work with.

34
00:01:23,444 --> 00:01:27,164
At UTS, I learned that business
can be more than profit.

35
00:01:27,164 --> 00:01:29,544
It can shape a sustainable future.

36
00:01:29,544 --> 00:01:32,704
With the confidence to lead
on a global scale, I'm ready

37
00:01:32,704 --> 00:01:34,125
to help change business for good.
