Brie is a 2nd year MBA candidate at UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School. She is originally from New Jersey and holds a B.S. in Finance with a minor in Spanish from the University of Delaware. After graduating in 2006, Brie volunteered for a small, but growing farmers cooperative in Oaxaca, Mexico; here she developed & managed the expansion strategy for the grocery category. Upon completion of this project, she returned to the US to pursue a career in banking where she was involved in a broad array of financial roles including mergers & acquisitions, project management, and treasury operations. This summer Brianne worked for DuPont, assessing new business development opportunities for the Biotechnology division. She has a passion for food technology innovation, particularly within the mobile and e-commerce spaces and hopes to leverage her MBA education and finance background to effect change in our food system.
