My greatest challenge when I applied to business school: Balancing preparing for the GRE while finishing my degree.
About me: I was born and raised in the US in Oklahoma, before moving to Illinois to pursue my bachelors degree in economics and art history. I have always considered myself a multifaceted thinker who feels engaged by both quantitative work and the humanities.
During my undergraduate experience, I took on various internship roles across equity research, communications and cash management. I also spent a summer studying abroad in London, which helped me envision a life here and ultimately led me to pursue my masters at London Business School.
I chose London Business School because of the people. Everyone here has a unique background and a shared passion for learning, creating a truly special community.
In my free time, I enjoy visiting art museums and exploring London’s beautiful parks!
Three topics I can be approached about: GRE preparation; how to craft your story; adjusting to life in London.
