Finding clarity in the chaos

by Tori Coles

When Krishna was first considering graduate school, she faced a familiar crossroads: pursue a traditional engineering path or follow a conventional business degree. Neither fully matched her ambitions.

She knew one thing with certainty: she wanted to build something of her own.

The Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (MBET) program offered a different path. Designed around venture creation and real-world experimentation, MBET gave Krishna the space to test ideas, make mistakes, and develop the interdisciplinary mindset that continues to shape her work today as a product manager and author.
