My Philosophy

"When I was President of Northeastern's Graduate Student Government, I often told students to treat their time in graduate school as a sandbox. It's the best time to experiment, get your hands dirty, and build without fear of failure. Every setback still leaves behind a lesson. By the time you graduate, the only question to ask yourself is: How bold of a sandcastle did you try to build, and how much did you grow while shaping it?"
