This past spring, Mousavi served as Student CEO at the Saxbys café at Fordham University, treating every challenge as a chance to level up. He carried real P&L responsibility, led his team through the full complexity of running a live business, and walked away with a sharper sense of what he is capable. Borna reflected: "I felt like every day I came to work, something in me would change. Every challenge I overcame gained me a new skill."

This fall, we are so excited to welcome Owens (undergraduate Global Business major) as the incoming Student CEO through the Saxbys Experiential Learning Platform®. This paid, credit-bearing leadership lab gives students real P&L responsibility, career-ready skills, and the kind of leadership experience that extends far beyond any classroom. Student CEOs advance into post-graduate leadership roles 7x faster than their peers, and we have no doubt Emily is ready.

Hands-on learning is one of the hallmarks of a Gabelli School of Business education, and the new student-run Saxbys cafe at Fordham’s Lincoln Center campus offers students invaluable opportunities to gain firsthand experience in running a business. This busy retail operation is staffed and managed completely by Fordham students with a Gabelli School undergraduate at its helm.

The cafe’s inaugural student CEO, Aidan Engelmann, a senior majoring in global finance, was responsible for launching the business this past October, growing it to become one of the highest-performing Saxbys during its first semester of operation. In January, Borna ShayeiMousavi, a sophomore majoring in finance/pre-law, took the reins. He leads a team of 40-50 students, overseeing all aspects of finance, marketing, and operations, while earning course credit in the process. Under his leadership, the cafe continues to post impressive numbers.

Saxbys was a natural partner for Fordham in this student-led entrepreneurship initiative. The company’s patented Experiential Learning Platform and social impact-driven mission align with the Gabelli School’s emphasis on practical, hands-on approaches to business education and its focus on business with a purpose.
