“I came to Anderson because I am passionate about improving equity for those from underserved communities and I believe that businesses will play an increasingly large role in shaping that future. I think that an impact mindset is crucial for all MBAs, as they will be the ones making decisions that will affect people, communities, and the world around us. Through the Center for Impact, I've been exposed to various forms of social impact and different thought leaders who have changed the way I view business and the role it can play in changing the world for the better.”
