Not long after completing my undergraduate degree, I pursued gaining the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) designation, which involved completing the “Strategic Leadership Program” (SLP). The final submission for the program was a “Board Report” that was to display the students “mastery of the knowledge and competencies to join the profession.” In attaching our Board Report, done in a group with four other students, I hope to demonstrate what I have gained through the SLP. The program was able to instill in us a method to approaching problems, big and small, identifying solutions that can create value to shareholder and how they can be implemented.

For this e-portfolio entry, I am submitting the BAFI 541 valuation project, completed with Pawan Kumar, Akash Majumder and Michael Ries.
Nearly two semesters into the MBA program, I believe our valuation of WestJet Airline gives a sample of what I have taken away from the program thus far. Along with the Finance related modules completed in P1 & P2, I have also taken additional opportunities to gain as much exposure to the understanding workings behind valuing an organization. This includes taking part in the Capital Markets Training Program, National Investment Bank Competition and currently working on the CFA Research Challenge. As I look to pursue a career path in Equity Research, the valuation project gave me an opportunity to continue building and gaining as much exposure the career path. I hope to continue to build on this valuation and tweak where possible as I continue the MBA program.
