While business school is a great opportunity to develop your expertise in a variety of professional areas, it is also a time to focus on personal pursuits. From running marathons, to traveling the world – the options are endless. For recent graduate, Austin Chen ’22, Booth was an excellent time to pursue his passion for cooking.

Fellow Foodie and TBE Guest Writer, Jessie Wang ’22 had a chance to sit down with Austin and hear more about his culinary creations and his famous Boothie Dinner Parties.

Check out Coop’s final TBE Post - a feature on what it was like to be an Admissions Fellow and a member of The Booth Experience team. 👨🏼‍💻

“The prevalence of EQ and IQ per capita is unequivocally high, which never fell flat on me. Every day I would go to Harper Center excited to bump into all of my friends and hoping to get dragged to The Pub after class. I left Booth with some friends that felt like we grew up together and others from completely different walks of life, and a balance of our class with whom I would connect or help at the drop of a hat.”

“While golden hour turned into dusk, a ballroom full of Booth students, alumni, and business professionals met for the first time in two years for the flagship DuSable Conference hosted by the African American MBA Association (AAMBAA) chapter at Chicago Booth.”
