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

"Duke offers truly the best education. You will find It sets you apart from so many others."

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

"You have tremendous resources at your disposal - take advantage of them! Take advantage of your network. Learn as much as you can, now and throughout your career. In the beginning of your career, prioritize a position where you will be challenged intellectually and where you are surrounded by intelligent people that are willing to educate you."
