Maggie Talbot, aVP flagship events
Why did you join SWIB? Before Business school, I worked in a culture that was predominantly women-led and I absolutely loved that community. I wanted to find something similar at Stern, leaning into a space where women and allies can connect and support each other.
Favorite part about Stern: It's an opportunity to try everything. It's a gift to have a time in life dedicated to learning, trying new things, and being exposed to opportunities you wouldn't have had otherwise. I'm learning so much and meeting so many incredible people at Stern.
Advice for women considering pursuing business school: Don't say no to yourself! It can be easy to self select yourself out of different groups or experiences, but if you just go for it, you never know what will come!
Fun Fact: I sang the National Anthem at the Staples Center when I was a kid!
