If you would have asked Mike Raab '12 at graduation where he thought he would be at age 30, he surely wouldn't have said having worked in three completely different industries, taken a summer off to backpack through Europe, and be back at Northwestern working as a staff member and getting his MBA at Kellogg. In this episode, Mike shares the vital importance of making connections and the unpredictable ways in which the people you know can impact your life and take it in a multitude of different directions.
Mike is currently the associate director of The Garage, Northwestern's entrepreneurial incubator and start-up hub in Evanston. In his role, Mike helps current undergraduate and graduate students connect with each other, alumni, and friends to create that Northwestern network that was so valuable in his own career. Mike and the rest of The Garage team are launching a podcast called How I Got Here, where recent alumni share their career path post-graduation. How I Got Here can be streamed on all podcast platforms beginning January 5, 2021.
