Marketing & Management

Homeschool: Wharton           Year of Graduation:  2014
Concentrations:  Marketing & Management
Why did you choose Penn?:  After my junior year I did a summer program at Penn - Leadership in the Business World. I realized a couple things from this experience: One, that at Penn you don’t have to forgo any opportunity, and two, a majority of learning actually occurs outside the classroom. When these two things clicked, Penn became the obvious choice.
What do you love about Penn?:  Passion drives everything around here. It doesn’t drive us all in the same direction but that’s what’s most inspiring. It gives you the courage to develop and pursue your own. Passion is definitely what I love about Penn.
How are you involved on campus?: Wharton Latino, Penn LDSSA, Kite & Key Society
Do you have a favorite class or professor?:  Professor Cassie Mogilner!
