Wisconsin MBA

💡Alumni Spotlight: Charlotte Du, MBA '19 Currently a Senior Associate in Alternative and Strategic Transactions at Nuveen, Du oversees investments in alternative real estate sectors. She played a key role in creating a partnership between Nuveen and a prominent real estate trust. This joint venture builds high quality, affordable housing for families across the country while generating investment returns for fund investors. Du traveled from China to Wisconsin in 2016 in pursuit of her American dream. While working on acquisition deals for hotels, her scholarly interest in real estate investment was sparked and she discovered Wisconsin School of Business's nationally renowned Real Estate MBA program. Through participation in case competitions and the opportunity to build strong industry connections at WSB (thanks to the vast network of real estate Badgers and the James A. Graaskamp Center for Real Estate), Du has "sharpened [her] skills as an investor, enabling [Du] to connect with diverse groups of people and understand their perspectives," in her own words.
