"At Wharton I learned how to learn"
At Wharton I learned how to learn. In the
business world, there's fact and information flying
around all the time. To discern what's important,
to be able to grab it out of the air and understand
how to apply it, is key, and my college experience
was a big contributor to learning how to do that.

Wharton has transformed my life. There's really
no other way to put it. I came here with no
knowledge of business whatsoever, no network of
people in the field I wanted to work in. My career
is at the intersection of the nonprofit world and
the corporate world, and it was at Wharton that I
began to understand that those two places really
did intersect. And the knowledge that I gained,
the people that I met, and the confidence I built
have opened doors to a whole new world I didn't
know existed.
