He also worked with an entrepreneurship organization, helping them re-brand their image and improve outreach effectiveness. During the summer of 2010, Brossy worked for SOL-R Energy LLC, creating financial models for ROI of photovoltaic electricity generation projects in the U.S.

Brossy began his work towards an MBA in Finance at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania immediately after his graduation from Harvard in 2010. He was awarded the merit-based Howard E.
