About
Naturally, my learning must precede anything else I aspire to accomplish. But learning the aspect of business is not a simple change. We operate in an abundance of information and our best evidence evolves daily. As such, learning to exercise good judgment requires extensive study and practice. Thus, I consider myself as a lifelong learner. Growing up I fell in love with cheerleading and wanted to perform well. To pursue that goal, I poured over instructional masterpieces and reviewed countless hours of videotapes, and various stimulators. Also, I worked persistently to learn the right mechanics. Today, my pursuit is much different but the principle is similar. By extensive study and obtaining my MBA degree, I’m striving to escalate my foundational knowledge in business and to increase the possibilities of entering law school.
Thus, as I gain experience in my current profession, I am optimistic of improving my knowledge by attending and to incorporate the information into my daily professional practice. I believe the extensive skill-sets taught through this esteemed program will be beneficial to my overall career goals. Such experiences will lay a foundation of initiative that I can build on in law.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I look forward to maintaining this busy schedule as a corporate lawyer of an international equity fund about ten years after obtaining my MBA.
- Graduate school interests
I desire options, security and a career. I know entering into a prestigious MBA program will fulfill my goals and aspirations. I am ecstatic to have found a program that not only offers the opportunity to train in a well-structured environment, but a well-administered atmosphere with faculty who love to teach. As I seek to become a skillful business professional, an advocate for my profession, and a committed educator, I need a program that will make it possible for me to unite my personal and professional goals.
- Outside the classroom
Not only are my professional goals important, but I strive to change lives through volunteerism. As member of the Fort Bend Junior League, we are committed to developing the potential of women, to improving the community through action and leadership of trained volunteers. Our purpose is exclusively educational as well as providing an atmosphere of friendliness, goodwill and camaraderie. I am also the founder of House of Girlz which is an empowerment group for young girls. The mission is to transform young girls’ lives by creating unbreakable bonds through their outward appearance stimulating inwards. Our objectives entail increasing self-esteem, building enduring and rewarding relationships, and assisting to reach their highest potential. Another community outreach program that I am participating in is the court appointed special advocate. CASA is a national association within the United States that supports and promotes court-appointed advocates for abused and neglected children.
