ON WHY SHE CHOSE SANTA CLARA:

“I chose Santa Clara University because of the beautiful campus, the welcoming tennis team and coach and its unique location in Silicon Valley. The reputation of the Leavey School of Business is very impressive, and I think it would suit me well as I discover what I would like to study in the field of business. I also like that the school has a Jesuit element to it because I would explore my faith more while in college.”
