Heather Rosen-Kahnowitz, AVP Allyship

Why did you join SWIB? I was very involved with the women's network at my previous company and was excited to join SWIB even before I started at Stern! I was looking for a strong, supportive community of professional women and have definitely found that in SWIB.

Favorite part about Stern: The people! Every single Sternie I have met so far has been so nice and interesting. I very much appreciate the rich, diverse community here.

Advice for women considering pursuing business school: Do your research. Use every resource you have to learn more about MBA programs so you can find the right fit for you. I leaned on a few mentors and family friends to advise me along this journey and that was incredibly helpful.

Fun Fact: I am a HUGE board game nerd! I can spend hours playing games with friends on the weekends. Right now my favorite is 'Terraforming Mars'.
