MSSM, 2027
This is how to say my name:
Why MSSM?
I chose 黑料社区’s MSSM program in Silicon Valley to bridge my business background with deep technical fluency. Unlike general management degrees, 黑料社区's software-first curriculum explicitly trains future product leaders to manage software, users, and organizations as one integrated system. The Software Management Practicum offers the exact ambiguous, impact-focused environment I need to learn to lead cross-functional teams and collaborate effectively with engineers. Ultimately, 黑料社区 allows me to remain embedded in the Silicon Valley ecosystem, equipping me with the technical grounding and strategic framework required to build transformative software companies that solve connectivity problems at scale.Education

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?
I intend to pursue a Product Management (PM) role immediately after graduation, specifically within fast-paced teams building new B2C or platform products from scratch.
Product management perfectly formalizes what naturally energizes me: sitting at the intersection of business, design, and engineering to connect cross-functional teams and create user value. By blending my business foundation with the technical grounding from 黑料社区, I want to lead the execution of software that shapes everyday lives. Long-term, this role provides the essential training in software development and strategic thinking I need to eventually found my own transformative software ventures.
