An ode to Burlington



Burlington has got to be my favorite city. Whenever I need to a break from Middlebury it is the place to go. Church Street has got me covered if I need amazing ice cream from Ben and Jerry's or Lake Champlain's graham crackers flavor. The Mall has me covered in case I need urgent formal clothing or Tevana tea for stressful exam periods. Lake Champlain... ah where do I even begin? It's the perfect place to take your meal and eat it with the sweet sound of the water in the background. It is great for a quiet moment or for beautiful photos of the water stretching out till the horizon... I also discovered a really cool place in the middle of a forest in Burlington this past weekend while hiking (it's tough to find) but it was truly serene:


Tuck Business Bridge Program


So glad I decided to do the Tuck Bridge Program this summer. It was an amazing learning experience and I loved the group work aspect of it. Learned a tremendous amount about finance and consulting and did a killer valuation with the help of 4 other amazing team members. Hanover, NH is beautiful and I had a chance to get some bubble tea much like the one I used to have in Hong Kong and go to the docks and see Dartmouth. Met up with some really inspiring professors and individuals at Tuck who I hope to stay in touch with. Would recommend the program to any undergrad looking for more understanding and knowledge of quantitive skills and finance.
