I have made many mistakes along the way as I have gone in and out of the workforce (see my blog under Nonprofit) but I have tried to do everything I did with integrity and to the best of my abilities. For this, I know that my children forgive me my many faults and, because of this, I have had a series of fascinating jobs that enabled me to feel that I was making a difference in the world. The one thing I have learned is that there isn’t any right answer or right way to go about things.

My oldest child is now 23 years old. I took my GMATs in a special seat because the regular auditorium chairs had fold down arms that turned into desks only I was so pregnant with him that the desk would not fit over my stomach. My son was born in November and my husband and I went to my parent’s house for Christmas and I got help from them for watching my son and polishing my essays for my business school applications. When I started at the Stanford Business School, my son was 9 months old and my husband was in a Masters Degree program in Engineering.
