Favorite NOLA Restaurant:

Everyone needs to try Emeril’s once in their life. But every other night, Chada is a personal favorite.

Favorite Spot on Campus:

Even as a liberal arts major, I did the majority of my studying (and even still do some work) in the atrium of the business school. The b-school also has some of the best art on display out of any building on campus

My “Only at Tulane” Moment:

This actually happened slightly off campus, but while I was picking up my coffee at Starbucks one morning, I ran into one of our dance professors and one of our men’s basketball players. Tulane is just about the only thing we all had in common, but the three of us had a very pleasant conversation.

My “Only in New Orleans” Moment:

Getting to see The Killers play an 800 person warm up gig at Tipitina's the night before they headlined Jazz Fest.

My Best College Search Process Tip:

So much emphasis gets put on how a school evaluates your application, but don’t forget that you also have to evaluate the school! Make a list of the things that are most important to you and confirm that the schools you are spending your time and energy on meet your criteria.
