“Emory taught me to embrace the possibilities. The campus life and academic curriculum was and remains so rich and full of avenues to explore. Emory pushed me out of my comfort zone—academically and personally—in ways that I never anticipated. You can only view the world through your lens of experience. Emory was a place that certainly broadened my lens, and for that I am forever grateful.”
