Why a JD/MBA? I knew that I wanted to pursue the JD/MBA because of how interwoven the worlds of business and law have become.

Why Penn? Penn offers a creative and analytical environment for study as well as a collaborative network, both of which will position me to contribute to my environment using my greatest potential.

The collegial environment at Penn law really complements the emphasis on entrepreneurship at Wharton and the two programs complement each other extremely well. It has been exciting to become part of such an amazing interdisciplinary team.
