I hope to help level the playing field for women to achieve the highest levels of success in their business careers. I also call upon scholarship recipients to pay it forward in their own careers by continuing to promote the role of women in the business world.

I am incredibly grateful to have received an MBA from the Ross School of Business, and I am honored that I can help other women do the same through our scholarship. I think the Women Mean Business fundraising initiative is an exciting opportunity to harness our collective power to make a long-term positive impact on the school and its students.
