Jasper Knighten
Rice MBA
I often hear Houston described as one of those places you never intended to stay or fall in love with, and yet, once people move here, they often don’t look back. The rich representation of diverse cultures and foods, warmer climate, and affordability make Houston such a great place to earn an MBA.
