My Sister, the graduate

Last Thursday, my sister Elizabeth graduated from the prestigious International MBA program at USC. I am so proud of her! She is one of these people who is always raising the bar for herself and her accomplishments. When she applied to this selective program, I think she really doubted that she would even get accepted. Afterall, she’d never even had a business class in her life - coming out of the Engineering program at Clemson. Well not only did she get accepted, she got a huge scholorship!! That was the first WOW for me. The second one came when I heard yesterday her say (so nonchalantly) that she graduated with a 3.95 GPA. Oh my word!! This is the girl that two years ago didn’t even know what a debit/credit was, or an investment derivative. I just know she’s a genious!!! Anyway, as you can tell I’m just a little bit proud I think everyone at the graduation could tell, too. I had my very obnoxious looking 70-200 lens with me that brought about a lot of odd looks. I got some good shots though!

Here’s Elizabeth when she saw me for the first time (thinking - how embarrassing - my photographer sister!)

Right after getting hooded..

So what is next for my superstar sister? She has an awesome job at GE in Greenville! (Ironic because that is where I started my corporate finance career 6 years ago)
