Profiles in Color: Nkem Nwankwo


It’s still Black History Month and I’ve got a special Profiles in Color episode for you. This one is featuring…myself! Last week (feat. Kareem Edwards) is a tough act to follow, so I hope you enjoy this one. Find out how I came to the decision to go back to school for my MBA.

Born in Nigeria and raised in the US, Nkem took a naive fascination with technology and made it a career. After receiving a BS in Computer Engineering, he went on to work as a Software Engineer and a Product Manager at John Deere in Davenport, IA. After that, Nkem attended University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business where he received his MBA.

Nkem is now a Product Manager for Microsystems, a legal software company in the Chicago area. He is also the author of the book After School: Is Getting an MBA Really Worth It? and the After School blog. Click the link below to hear Nkem’s story.
