MSc Financial Markets and Investments student Juliette Kahn and Master in Management (grande école) student Ronan Morel competed in the 2023 USA Triathlon National Championship - collegiate clubs, Atlanta, Georgia.
Juliette and Ronan joined the NC State triathlon team this year, thanks to SKEMA’s partnership with the university. In April, they attended the championship at Lake Lanier, near Atlanta and competed in the Olympic distance (1.5km swim – 40km bike – 10km run). 100 other university clubs from across the nation participated, sending in 1,200+ of the best US collegiate club triathletes.
“I'm honoured to compete at such a high level and be part of a supportive and committed community at NC State as at SKEMA.” – Juliette.
Juliette is a French-Salvadoran student who just finished the MSc Financial Markets and Investments on the Raleigh campus. In the fall, she ran the Chicago marathon, and she is now training for the Garmin Paris triathlon that will take place in June. She has secured a position in finance in Paris.

Ronan is from the north of France and has been doing triathlon for four years. This semester, he also competed in the IRONMAN 70.3 Gulf Coast in Florida (1.9km swim – 90km bike – 21.1km run). He is coming back to the Raleigh campus in the fall to continue his studies in the Master in Management (PGE) programme.
Congratulations to both students on their accomplishments!
