“I’m constantly being challenged by my classmates about what I’m going to do next; they are at the same time great motivators and sounding boards.

I told him that managing school, work and family life has been a challenge, but that I felt pretty good about knowing when to dial up on some things and dial back on others. His response to me was, ‘Now you know how to be a CEO.’”
