Student Experiences
Kelley Crowley
Simmons MBA '07 and Certificate Program '08
As an intrapreneur frequently recognized for her entrepreneurial work ethic, Kelley Crowley always dreamed of starting her own business, but did not know how to translate that dream into a reality. Kelley was attracted to Simmons because of the number and quality of the learning opportunities it offers in terms of teaching, training and mentoring future female entrepreneurs.
Kelley credits the Certificate in Entrepreneurship Program for facilitating a high level of interaction with female entrepreneurs through a series of guest speakers and the mentoring program.
Besides being a nationally recognized leader in entrepreneurship, the Certificate in Entrepreneurship Program at Simmons does an extraordinary job at connecting current female entrepreneurs with future entrepreneurs. The high level of interaction with distinguished members of the business community has enabled me to be much more comfortable with the risks of starting my own venture.
