Mitchell Woodruff (Class of 2024) grew up in the small town of Crestwood, Kentucky. After earning a degree in psychology from Xavier University, Mitchell pursued nursing at Bellarmine University and worked as a pediatric ICU travel nurse across the U.S. and abroad. He spent time providing care on a ship off the coast of Africa, helping children with cleft lip and palate repairs, and eventually decided to switch careers, enrolling in the Duke MBA program. Now, Mitchell is preparing for a move to the Bay Area and a new role as a consultant.
In this episode, Mitchell shares his journey from small-town Kentucky to global healthcare service and his decision to leave nursing for business. He talks about the emotional challenges of ICU nursing, volunteering in underserved areas, and the process of finding a new purpose through his MBA experience.
