How has being an Economics graduate from Duke helped shape you personally and/or professionally?

"Graduating from Duke opened doors for me that would otherwise have been closed given my background. I will forever be grateful of the opportunity that being a student at Duke provided."

What advice would you give students in Duke's Economics programs? 

"Get to know the professors! It's so rare to have the opportunity to get to know so many brilliant and awesome people. It's difficult, but try not to default into going into doing what everyone else is doing, especially with recruiting/jobs. If there's something else that speaks to you, it's worth going after that."
