Partners and Families

"Being a mother and a student has been exhilarating and exhausting. It has meant that I have had to balance many more demands on my time and that my priorities have been different from my classmates. The school has been supportive, understanding when I needed more flexibility (on occasion I brought my son to class) and my classmates have been wonderful — throwing me a baby shower and offering free babysitting. Although motherhood and pursuing an MBA is challenging, it is doable and has been a very rewarding experience."

"My experience here is definitely stretching me personally and professionally. Professionally, I have gained countless mentors and enthusiasts and feel endlessly supported in both my family business and in my sales career. Personally, I’ve become a much more effective communicator and leader. Tools for negotiation, motivating others, articulating a strategy, and giving and receiving feedback have helped me be a better wife, mom, daughter, and sister!"
