Why did you choose Daniels?

Daniels is tight-knit, well-connected and forward-thinking. The amount of resources and student support here is incredible, and the uniqueness of the REBE program is unparalleled. I knew this was the only school for me and the icing on the cake was the location. It doesn’t get any better than having a large city at your fingertips along with the plethora of outdoor activities year-round.

Pre-grad school experience

I worked in the private service industry for nearly 12 years, with the majority of my time spent on private yachts as a chief stewardess.

Post-grad school goal

I would love to work as an owner’s representative or project manager for a sustainably minded developer or design-build firm.

Hobbies

I love to ride horses, snowboard, hike with my dog, cook for friends and family and cozy up with a good book!
