Nori
Nori is my little dog and one of the happiest cutie pies I know. She is always ready for a walk, a toy, or a nap on the sofa.
She has also been having a great time with Rawoo, the cat of my roommate Miaomiao Zhang, a fantastic PhD student and yoga instructor who will be on the strategy job market next year. Here are Nori and Rawoo together.

Ruan and the Orchestra
For four years at Renmin University of China, I played the ruan (阮), a Chinese plucked lute, in the university’s Chinese orchestra. I remember it as the organization where I experienced the highest level of cultural alignment with the lowest level of explicit incentives.
