What was your favorite memory from your first year?
I think my favorite memory from the first year was the entire orientation week and the weekend that followed. I threw a grad student party at my home, hosting about 75 incoming and current grad students across Yale. It was an amazing time, and several people were able to forge new connections with students from other graduate schools at Yale. This was particularly helpful since a good number of MBA students are international students coming to the US for the first time.

Personal Interests...
I love watching TV shows, listening to UK rap, and trying different restaurants/cuisines (especially those with spicy food).
