Hi Everyone,
I am new to this group and looking for a bit of advice on choosing an MBA program. I graduated with my Bachelors of Fine Arts from an art school in Detroit - my major is Advertising.
While in college I did an internship in London at an advertising agency there. After college I went and worked for the Walt Disney Company at their in-house agency. I am currently working as an Art Director at an agency called Publicis Sapient. My background is as a creative and all of my positions have been in Art Direction. However, I love strategic planning and have a business curated mind.
I am ready to kick it up to the next level and get a Masters degree. I would love to have an MBA - just trying to figure out with my background the best way to approach this. I do not have a specific region in mind...but would defiantly not mind moving to Europe for a bit!
I do live in Michigan and I know there are few excellent choices in my area as well.
I was wondering if anyone was in the same situation as I am with a similar background - or any advice in general?
Thanks in advance!

It's totally doable. I would look at where Publicis, Omnicom (where I worked) and Interpublic MBAs have been hired from. Europe is a great idea if you have language skills.
