Day 3
On Friday morning, I got the opportunity to see Anita Hill speak. The session was so popular that there was an entire overflow room, but luckily I had preregistered and got to see her in person. One of the things Continue reading Day 3
Final day!
This post is late– I got a little caught up in finishing homework I missed, and the flight home was pretty exhausting. The final day was definitely a lot lower-energy than the others. Not that that was a bad thing– Continue reading Final day!
Final Day
I’m a little late in writing this (got caught up in all the makeup work). I’m sad GHC is over, I got to practice my networking skills, listen to some really cool talks, and most importantly, meet so many incredible Continue reading Final Day

Day 3: When Can I Be Selective?
The moment I was accepted to attend the conference, I submitted my resume to GHC’s resume database. You would not believe how helpful it is to have such a straightforward in to these companies. As the conference approached, the amount Continue reading Day 3: When Can I Be Selective?
Day 2: Yoga Mats are Heavy
Part of our predeparture session involved describing the heaps of swag we were expected to receive. I prepared and left my suitcase largely empty on the flight to Houston. This was not nearly enough space. I began running into problems Continue reading Day 2: Yoga Mats are Heavy
