“Everyone is brilliant. Everyone here is kind. And I know, standing next to my classmates, I am standing next to some of the smartest people that I’ve ever met, and that really inspires me to be better as well.”

“What really surprised me is the close relationships I have with my classmates and how much we stay in touch and how they really are interested in the industry. … At SMU, it’s a different experience than my undergraduate education. … I’m still very close with a lot of my SMU classmates. We help each other out inside and outside the classroom, just staying close. It’s something unique I found at SMU.”
