Hi, my name is Haripriya and I am PBC's VP of Team Management! Prior to joining Tepper, I worked at a Healthcare consulting firm but was a part of the resolution group focusing on healthcare claims. I joined PBC because I wanted to gain more experience within consulting from connecting with clients to solving their biggest problems while giving back to my new community. Outside of Tepper, I enjoy dancing, trying new recipes, and traveling. I'm looking forward to meeting future Tepperoni's and feel free to reach out with any questions!

Chira is originally from Thailand with a degree in Finance. Before pursuing her MBA, she worked in digital transformation and data initiatives at Accenture and KPMG for 7 years. She has developed tech strategy and implementation skills as a management consultant, optimizing growth and efficiency for clients. By joining PBC, Chira envisions the opportunity to catalyze impactful change not only within Tepper or CMU but also within Pittsburgh and beyond. PBC embodies a diverse community where individuals from various backgrounds converge to share their skill sets and create value for stakeholders. She is confident that together, we can drive positive, lasting impacts for our community.

My name is Apeksha, and I am deeply honored to be part of the vibrant community at the Tepper School of Business. My journey in community service and leadership began during my undergraduate studies and has been a guiding force throughout my professional and academic endeavors.

Prior to joining Tepper, I spent seven enriching years as a Senior Manager at an Edtech firm in India, where I was fortunate to lead multiple roles across product and operations. During my tenure, I was actively involved in pro bono projects that aimed to leverage technology to enhance educational opportunities for underprivileged students. These experiences not only honed my skills in management and leadership but also reinforced my commitment to using my expertise for societal benefit.

Driven by a passion to contribute further and make a tangible impact, I joined the Pro Bono Consulting Club in my first year at Tepper. This platform has allowed me to engage directly with the Pittsburgh community, providing strategic consulting to non-profit organizations and thereby supporting them in achieving their mission more effectively. The projects we undertake range from operational improvements to strategic planning, all tailored to meet the specific needs of the community we serve.

In addition to my involvement in pro bono initiatives, I also serve on the board of the Tepper Consulting Club. This role allows me to foster a culture of excellence and collaboration among my peers, promoting the values of integrity and leadership that Tepper stands by.

Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions, or if you wish to discuss potential collaborations or initiatives that can further our shared goal of community service.

Hi, my name is Mizuho and I am the VP of Finance for Tepper PBC! Prior to Tepper, I worked as an insurance sales agent and tech sales rep in Japan and I am aiming to apply my sales/marketing experience in a strategy/consulting role post MBA. I joined PBC because of the opportunity to work on actual consulting projects and to engage with the Pittsburgh community that I currently call home. Outside of class, I enjoy skiing, soccer, anything fitness related and playing electric bass. I look forward to getting to know everyone and please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi, my name is Anurag! I currently serve as PBC’s VP of Client Engagement. Prior to Tepper, I spent 4 years with an education nonprofit called City Year partnering with Boston Public Schools to combat the existing opportunity and racial equity gaps in US school systems. I joined PBC because it’s an incredible opportunity to apply what Tepper students learn about in classrooms, and allows me to give back to the Greater Pittsburgh community that has already given me so much so far. Outside of class & PBC, I enjoy playing sports, reading, and exploring Pittsburgh. I’m so excited to pay-it-forward with future Tepper students!
