Who are you? I am an eclectic mix of passion and logic with varied interests in multiple topics. I enjoy puzzles, reading, photography and art. I fill my life with random things and experiences in hope that someday the dots will connect so that everything makes sense when I look back at it.

What neighborhood do you live in? The Loop. It’s very close to the Booth community and the neighborhood is bustling. It’s central to everything.

Who is your favorite Booth professor? Devin Pope. He’s funny and has personal stories to backup every topic. It’s like 3 hours of chatting with your best friend but learning something every week.

Advice to anyone considering business school: There’s no way to explain it, you have to experience it or you’ll think people are making up the benefits of coming.

What is one thing you wish you had known when applying to MBA programs? Everyone was right! It takes time to adjust to being a student again. More time if you’re an international student and even more if you’ve been out of school for a long while.
