About
My name is Veteran Acha, I am a Cameroonian and a permanent resident of Houston Texas (U.S.A). I am an M.B.A. in Supply Chain Management student. I am currently taking the supply chain concentration courses. I hope to complete the concentration courses by September 2016 after which I will obtain a Graduate Certificate in Supply Chain Management. I hope to get a job with my graduate certificate while working on my M.B.A.. I also hope to take and complete the M.B.A. core courses by September 2017. After these two years, I will earn a Master in Business Administration in Supply Chain Management. I also have a Bachelor of Science in Geography from Cameroon and a Master in Transportation Science from Belgium. Interested in transportation geography at undergraduate level motivated me to study transportation science at master level. After obtaining my master in Belgium, I developed interest in supply chain and logistics which are closely related to transportation science. Gaining admission to study supply chain (logistics) in UHD was a dream come true for me. This will enable me to be an "all-around" expert in the transportation sector. I am aiming at boosting my career to include operations and supply chain (inventory), logistics, and procurement management.
I have considerable working experience in customer service and some sales experience. I am currently working with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice to raise money to help me while I study.
I hope HonorSociety.org will be a great opportunity for me to accomplish my dreams through scholarships, internship opportunities and also getting a job.
