FROM UCLA FEMBA Admission Director: Road Trippin’ 2015
We recruit year round, but lately, our team has been logging the miles. Thanks to all our current and alumni FEMBAs who meet us in all these cities and help us communicate to the next generation of FEMBAs. And thanks to my team, who make it all happen!

Houston, March 9, 2015     Christy jetted over to Houston Monday and hosted a dinner for future FEMBAs. Thanks to Flex student Vishal Saheta (2017) and alum Oleg Melnikov (2004) who attended.


Boeing, March 11, 2015   Maureen, Heather Layne 15, and I went to Boeing in El Segundo on March 11. Thanks to all our current and alumni volunteers: Patti Strong 15, Richard Pepe 14, Richard Milford 04, John Stanley 09, Theresa Huang 10 (Organizer, Thank you!), Sean Camarella 16!



Northwest Week: March 2-4, 2015, Maureen recruited on both sides of the bridge, hosting events in both Seattle and also Redmond. Then she drove three hours and held our first-ever Portland recruiting event.


Maureen hosted FEMBA’s first-ever Portland Recruiting event, at the Red Star Tavern, at the Hotel Monaco.


Maureen Riley (front right) was supported in Redmond by Meera Aurora (2016 Flex) and Hyer Bercaw (1994) .


Artist’s rendition of Matt Gorlick “wowing” his audience. Matt forgot to take a photo…

Long-Term Outreach: March 2, 2015 Matt went to CSUN and spoke to honors business students about their long-term goals and how they can spend their twenties to end up at great places like UCLA Anderson.

We had an over-capacity at Admissions 101 (an 80% show rate blew us away) led by Matt, with Christy and Raymond supporting. There’s Matt in the middle.


Matt’s leading Admissions 101 in the Executive Dining Room, February 25.

Bay Area Week — Maureen and Christy hit the road two weeks ago, to Santa Clara and San Francisco.

Friday, February 20, was lunch in Santa Clara and we appreciate our volunteers Tim Hui 2014, Asad Sattar 2013, Jeffery Langston-Jones 2014, Sriram Puthucode 2013, and Steven Huang 2015.


There’s Maureen, in the middle standing, welcoming everyone in Santa Clara.

Thursday, February 19, was lunch in San Francisco. Thanks to our volunteers Eric Hong 2010, Yousef Dalal 2014, Jeff Chang 2012, Asad Sattar 2013.


Lunching in San Francisco.

Wednesday evening February 18, was our Women’s Event at Yelp. Thanks to Zaina Orbai 2012, Director of HR at Yelp who hosted us, and to Anna Min 2010, Reimi Hyun 2013 and Tafflyn Toy 2011 who all joined the panel.


That’s our own Maureen Riley leading the discussion.


Doesn’t the furniture at Yelp make you want to chill?

FROM UCLA FEMBA Admission Director: FEMBAs raise $10,000 for charity
FEMBAs doing well. Love this story! Thanks to Aaron and Deyan, for collaborating, making a difference, and “Sharing Success.”

Hey Dylan!

I wanted to share with you. Deyan Sabourian (FEMBA 2017 Section 4) and I (Aaron Bergman, FEMBA 2017 Section 4), teamed up to throw a fundraiser February 27th, to support my nonprofit I work for, Communities In Schools of Los Angeles.


Front Row, L-R, David Zhou 17 and Rossanna Li (MBA 14) Back Row, L-R, Ethan Held 17, Terrence Winters 17, Deyan Sebourian 17, Aaron Bergman 17 and Avery Merriex 17


Avery Merriex 17, perusing the choices for giving.

It was an awesome event and we got some FEMBAS out to support us!  Many of our classmates wanted to come, but couldn’t, but donated anyway. Knowing that there is such a strong culture of giving inside of our FEMBA community means a lot to me, having spent most of my career inside of both nonprofits and the classroom.

I saw this firsthand, obviously with all of the folks who donated, but then was able to experience it through the help of Deyan, who brought on Society of Young Philanthropists to help throw the event for my nonprofit. Even our own Nico, our Econ professor, donated!


Aaron Bergman 17, David Zhou 17 and Deyan Sebourian 17, Ringleaders making a difference.

We ended up raising about $10K for Communities In Schools of Los Angeles. Communities In Schools of Los Angeles is the leading dropout prevention program in the country. We serve over 15,000 students in LA and post a 97% graduation for our seniors.


A Party with a Purpose: Supporting  Communities in Schools, Los Angeles

We are raising money to place more of our adult experts permanently on a school’s campus to make sure all children who are at-risk of dropping out get the resources and one on one relationships they deserve to graduate.


L-R Terrence Winters, Aaron Bergman, David Zhou, Deyan Sabourian, Avery Merriex

Best,

Aaron

 

Dylan: Post Script.

I hope we can recruit Aaron and Deyan into planning FEMBApalooza 4.0. I’d love to weave in a charitable giving element this year.  Hint. Hint!

Got the call yesterday but didn't want to post anything until I saw the email/update in the application system today - I'm in! My top choice and I am so excited!

I was a heavy splitter but this was my dream program (academics, network, location, and the smooth operations they had at open houses, super Saturday interview, etc. just demonstrated that this is a school that knows what it is about). So happy to be a Bruin!

Got the call yesterday and I'm ecstatic! Congrats to all that were admitted and best of luck to those on the waitlist!

Out of curiosity, has anyone completed the enrollment and paid the deposit? I was able to enter my section preference but the link to "Complete Enrollment" didn't work in my browser (I tried I.E. and Firefox)
