Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "I really enjoyed the MBA program because it was incredibly immersive.

It’s an amazing program for people interested in tech specifically."

Excerpt from Accepted.com -- "...what I tell them on day one again is, 'Look, you may have picked up some skills in your domain, but what we are going to teach you are cross-functional skills where, based on those first principles, now that you’ve learned, you can apply them in any data set.'

For Stern, Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is a differentiator that enables students to build relationships, sell ideas, and grow professionally in a way that data alone can’t. In fact, EQ is the #1 quality that Stern weighs in admissions decisions, fostering a supportive community that values mutual respect as much as hard-nosed results."

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — “My favorite MBA tradition at NYU Stern is Follies, our end-of-year comedy show, reflecting on the past year of our collective MBA experience. This event is put together by students, for students, and it is an opportunity to laugh and celebrate the end of our year, as well as fun and funny moments throughout the year. Last year, I had the opportunity to serve as an Assistant Vice President on the Board and perform in the show. This year, I am Chief of Staff for the club and I am writing sketches, producing, and performing. I am excited to end the year in the best way we know how – together, celebrating each other!”
