What about the Rice MBA program has surprised you the most?
The amount of resources and facilities offered! Its evident that Rice cares about its students but until you join the program, you don't appreciate how much the professors get involved and what all you have access to!

What has been your favorite moment of your Rice MBA experience so far?
Girls Nights! Given the small portion of women in the program, we do monthly girls nights (wine nights, potlucks) and its the best opportunity to get know people outside of our section and relax!

What is your favorite thing about and/or favorite spot in Houston?
I'm a born and raised Houstonian so I naturally love the diversity the city has to offer! My favorite spot has to be the village because it offers everything you need - eating, shopping and studying!

In a sentence, what is the one piece of advice you have for prospective students?
Take the MBA as a chance to learn and have fun - don't worry about the grades!
