“Whether you're leading a project, whether you're running an experiment, whether you're working with a team, patience is very important. There are so many ways where the solution to the problem is just … seeing what the next move you can take is.”

“The Mount Holyoke riding team has completely changed my life. My time with the program gave me what I needed to melt into the rest of the campus culture and confirmed that I had made the right decision to come to Mount Holyoke.”

“Mount Holyoke has given me the skills to channel my fears of the unknown and turn them into opportunities to fuel my curiosities.”
