E42 - Overcoming Addiction and Becoming a Mental Health CEO (Jaime Blaustein)
Jaime Blaustein (MBA '18) recovered from 7 years of drug addiction before coming to Fuqua, pursuing investment banking, and becoming a mental health CEO. Combining his experiences in recovery with his business skills from Fuqua, Jaime co-founded the Sylvia Brafman Mental Health Center. As CEO, Jaime supports people with mental health conditions and substance use disorders to recover and rebuild their lives. Jaime’s journey is a powerful story that reminds us of the importance of resilience, hope, and service to others.
