Why did you join SWIB? I joined SWIB because I really wanted to be part of a supportive community of womxn while at Stern. SWIB hosts so many different types of events, and its exciting to meet new people and learn new things at each one of them!

Favorite part about Stern: All of my classmates are extremely intelligent and come from such a wide variety of backgrounds. I love that everyone is willing to be open and share their experiences, and that I can learn so much from them.

Advice for women considering pursuing business school: Be clear about your "why" and be confident in your capabilities! Also really think about what you're looking to get out of the experience and make sure the schools you're looking at will give you those opportunities.

Fun Fact: I teach semi-classical Indian dance and do freelance choreography for South Asian weddings in my free time!
