Harvard is an incredible environment to learn and progress as a professional, and I had a great experience there. The ability to support research and obtain hands-on experience, as well as the blend of theory and practice, were all crucial to my development. The professors pushed us to think large, and the discussions with students were always stimulating and motivating. Working in my field and then going to class to assess what I had just done and tie it to theories and best practices was really valuable to me. I still talk about what I learned at HGSE on a daily basis, and I put what I learned into practice every day.
