Brittany was the top rated basketball player in the country when she graduated from high school.

She was the first woman to participate in the McDonald’s Slam Dunk Contest (alongside LeBron James), and in college she played in the Final Four of the March Madness Tournament. 

But Brittany took a few tumbles in her basketball career. At one point, she couldn’t even walk. 

Now she’s got her sights set on becoming a Chief Operating Officer because she wants to “run shit and be a boss”.

Tune in as Brittany (Owen Class of 2020) discusses mediocre white men, bisexuality, and corporal punishment.

Addie has her first Michigan Ross business school class next week on Monday morning!

And it’s been a long time coming for Addie.

She applied to Ross last year, and got denied. And back in college, Addie switched her major from nursing to journalism at the very last minute.

Also, Addie graduated during the height of The Great Recession, so instead of getting a great job in marketing or PR back in 2010, she accepted a 1-year internship at Greyhound Lines, and had to network her ass off in order to get to where she is today.
