Hi Earl - 

I hope all is well! Apologies for the delay in sending these questions over - I graduate next week so it's been a bit crazy finishing up the quarter. 

Please let me know if I can help in any other way - you and MARS made such an impact in my life and always happy to repay the support!

Best,

Tessa

1. Harvard University 2015 Degree in Applied Mathematics with a focus in Decision Making; Stanford University 2021 Masters in Business Administration (expected 6/7/2021)

2. Chairman's Team & Fundraising / Community Outreach - I also was on the 1st ever MARS drive team

3. Following my college graduation, I joined Oliver Wyman as a Management Consultant in Chicago. Over time I developed a focus in the industrials and airline spaces. I also have spent some time working in the social impact space. Following my graduation from Stanford, I will be working for Alpine Investors, a lower, middle-market Private Equity firm, as the CEO of a small HVAC company in Chicago

4. For me, MARS was critical in helping me to become a leader and also changed how I thought about the impact I could make. I came into MARS as a 9th grader who wasn't exactly sure who I was or how I fit in. MARS showed me that there was not only space but a need for me to be smart, bold, and driven. The team, but particularly Earl, gave me the mentorship and the support to take on new challenges, to lead people, to dream up big ideas, to figure out how in the world to implement them, and to recognize just how large the impact we could make as a rag-tag bunch of teenagers was. Those are many of the same skills that have made me successful in the 10 years that have followed.

5. There are far too many funny stories to write down from Earl missing our first ever team photo after we won Rookie Inspiration to wearing a cardboard robot mascot through the streets of Atlanta. What I really remember from MARS though are the laughs, friendship, and just hanging out that occurred in the Phil's office in the old Hodges Hall and the hours we spent roaming the halls of Hodges driving robots, singing, coming up with ideas and so much more!

I hope this is helpful!
