Harvard SVMP

This summer I was exclusively selected to attend a one week program at Harvard Business School known as Harvard SVMP (Summer Venture in Management Program). As a representative of Google, I was able to meet and work with 69 students from across the nation to read, analyze and discuss 13 case studies using the renowned Harvard case study method.

This week was truly transformational week allowing me to learn from the most passionate professors in the world and the most driven students in the country. Being at HBS pushed me to consider the Fulbright grant among other options for post-graduation and truly posed the challenge of what I wanted to do with my "one wild and precious life"
