Rewarding Experiences

Joey Ammouri, Professional MBA '17

“Rice Business Board Fellows was one of the main reasons I chose to attend Rice. I remember thinking what a unique and amazing opportunity it would be to help further a cause I care about. As Board Fellows president, it has been a truly heartwarming and rewarding experience to share my vision, and expand the school’s reach to serve more nonprofits.”
