Why did you join SWIB? I joined SWIB to connect with an incredible group of women who are resilient, open-minded, and supportive of one another.

Favorite part about Stern: My favorite part about Stern is that the learning is endless. I have the opportunity to learn from everyone around me (professors and peers alike) in both classroom and social settings.

Advice for women considering pursuing business school: When I was first thinking about applying for business school, my thoughts revolved around figuring out what I needed it for. Questions like "what is my end goal?" and "how is business school going to help me get there?" were frequently revisited. Asking yourself these kinds of questions can create a mindset that will help you to begin carving out your future in a way that serves you best. If business school is the answer for you, then I can personally vouch for applying to Stern!

Fun Fact: I am pursuing a side hustle as a piano instructor and have been teaching for almost six years now!
