Foster Photo Blog: Tuesday, November 6, 2012

What does a day in the life of a Foster MBA look like? The Foster Photo Blogging project follows individual Foster students through their daily routines to give you a glimpse inside the life of an MBA living, learning, and working in Seattle at the Foster School of Business.

I am a second-year Full-time MBA student. I have been living in Seattle for nine years, all except for 4 months on Capitol Hill. Before the MBA, I was in biotech and I was also an entrepreneur. The focus of my MBA is Finance and Strategy, and I am involved with the Finance Society, Strategy Club, and Foster Foodies.

Coffee, New York Times, and Ethics paper.

It was going to be a long day of tracking election news and homework.

The Eastlake Stairs on Howe Street.

Working out regularly is a great way to keep focus and sanity in the MBA program.

Plus, the Howe St stairs are a great exercise for the Mt. Rainier C4C climb.

The party on Capitol Hill after President Obama won reelection and it became clear that R-74 (gay marriage) passed.

The party went on for a while.
