Goodbye and How to Reach Me
So as I promised I am indeed living it up in New York City! I have greatly enjoyed my first two weeks here. I have had the best pizza of my life, mastered the subway, and already seen a play and a comedy show. My internship at ABFE and HIP is going really well, and I expect that my summer as an SEO intern will indeed change my life.
This entry is going to be brief but meaningful as it my last for MBA Diversity--at least for two years anyway. Since I'm off to Ghana and then to my first year at the Kennedy School, the abounding wisdom and insight I have to share with all of you is not the most relevant. However, it has been an exhilarating journey. I have been so thrilled to receive comments from other students of color currently pursuing graduate degrees, in the process of applying, or simply people just stopping by to give some encouragement. Although I wasn't an MBA Diversity Fellow per se, my involvement with the organization as a blogger definitely impacted my perspective while applying. On more than one occasion I stayed up late at night reading Marquis' Stanford GSB blog, gaining inspiration for my own MBA Journey. Thank you, Keisha Dawn, for providing such a great venue for students of color to draw strength, encouragement, and advice from one another.
I want to make myself available to those out there who are about to embark on the journey to their MBA--especially those applying right out of undergrad as well as to young women and students of color. Feel free to email me at Kaneisha@gmail.com and we can email back and forth or set up a time to talk (that is if you catch me before or after Ghana).

I hope to hear from you. You'll certainly be hearing from me!
