On coming to Zicklin…
"I came to Zicklin to explore the zillions of opportunities available in New York in the field of finance. Zicklin, strategically located in Manhattan is the right place to study."
On applying to business schools…
"My advice to incoming students is to have some years of work experience before pursuing a business career path. Exposure to work cultures helps business students to relate to many issues discussed in the class."
On Zicklin curriculum…
"The aspect of Zicklin curriculum/course offerings that appeals to me the most is the variety of courses available in each major. It also allows for a dual major with very few or not even a single extra course to be taken."
On entrepreneurs at Zicklin…
"I see a lot of entrepreneurs at Zicklin. As graduate students we are involved in many projects and it takes a good leader to pull a successful performance from the team."
On leadership…
"An ability to perform and keep the group motivated even under a lot of pressure is a very important quality of a leader. At Zicklin we experience this many times during the semester and know for ourselves if we are a good leader. It turns out to be a good learning experience and prepares us to face the corporate world with more confidence."
