Why did you choose the Vanderbilt Executive MBA program? I chose Vanderbilt over several executive programs that were closer to home for two simple reasons: 1. Vanderbilt was interested in me as a person and in the success of its students; and 2. Vanderbilt has an active alumni association with a valuable network and contacts.
What was your biggest regret in business school? That I did not go back to school sooner in my career.
In one sentence, how would you like your peers to remember you? I would like my peers to remember me as an approachable and open person; someone who is competent, respected and respectful, and hopefully a resource to them in the future.
