FROM The Booth Experience: Business School, Two kids, and a Pandemic

This journey through pursuing my MBA has not all rainbows and flowers, of course. I had to balance a lot of plates, and to be honest, one or two got dropped. Last year, for instance, a teacher at the daycare tested positive for COVID-19, and my daughters had to quarantine for two weeks. This happened […]

FROM Booth Student Perspectives Blog: Untapped Resources at Booth

One of the most difficult parts of my b-school experience, especially during the first year, has been the constant juggling between academics, recruiting, and socializing. I had to prioritize a few things over others depending on the quarter/year. I was always amazed by myriad well-known Booth offerings. However, during my conversations with fellow Boothies, I […]

FROM Booth Student Perspectives Blog: NEVERLAND: Up and Accelerating

We are used to imagining life experiences as cycles that come, reach a peak, and then slowly fade away as they end… NOT IN BUSINESS SCHOOL! Right when I have the impression that by my last few weeks of business school I have already squeezed all the learnings and experiences that are out there available […]

FROM Booth Student Perspectives Blog: A Look Back on a Very Unique Experience

Receiving my graduation regalia in the mail, earlier this week, brought about a series of reflective emotions. I am about to complete a Masters in Business Administration from a great program that I worked really hard to get into. As I think about my time at Booth, I realize that this experience wasn’t necessarily what […]

FROM The Booth Experience: A Sprint Through The Finish Line

Before business school, every alum I talked to said the same thing: Make sure you have a plan when you get to school because it’s going to go quickly and there will be many opportunities that you’ll need to prioritize. I would like to add one caveat to this phrase…plans change. Mine certainly did. I’m […]

FROM The Booth Experience: Embrace the Unexpected with Grace

Having my Booth interview two weeks after I delivered my baby, calling the movers with the constant sound of the baby crying in the background, having an unexpected wrist surgery one month before I moved to Chicago, juggling coursework, recruiting, and taking care of my not-yet-one year old baby….I knew my MBA experience was not […]
