"Learn from every experience, connect people and ideas, and turn knowledge into meaningful impact."
For Casimy VALCY, joining the International MBA (IMBA) at National Tsing Hua University represents the next step in a journey that began in agriculture and expanded into project management and international development. Originally from Haiti, he holds a bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Engineering, with strong knowledge of economics and food systems. He began his career as a research assistant, working on solutions to improve crop performance through plant breeding, field experimentation, pest and harvest management, data analysis, and technologies such as drone mapping.
He later moved into program and project management within local development organizations in Haiti, where he gained experience in project implementation, team coordination, budgeting, reporting, resource management, and funder engagement. This experience showed him that creating meaningful impact requires more than technical expertise; it also requires leadership, strategic thinking, communication, and effective management of resources.
These challenges motivated him to pursue an MBA. He chose NTHU IMBA because of its international environment, diverse student community, experienced professors, and strong connection with Taiwan’s technology and innovation ecosystem. He sees the program as an opportunity to connect his previous experience with new knowledge in business, strategy, finance, technology, and entrepreneurship.
One of his most memorable experiences so far was the orientation day, when he met his classmates and began building relationships that will shape his journey over the next two years. Learning alongside people from different countries and backgrounds has also broadened his perspectives.
Looking ahead, Casimy hopes to work internationally, helping institutions develop better programs and systems that contribute to economic growth and people’s well-being. His journey from agriculture in Haiti to business education in Taiwan represents an expansion of his vision.
