First Semester Summary

First Semester (in a Nut Shell)

I realize I've been a bit MIA, so I thought I'd post a smattering of pictures from the semester before I head up to Seattle for Christmas and then to Argentina! :)

NAPA

The year started off with the Annual Women in Leadership trip to Napa. Good wine, great friends and sunshine resulted in a fabulous time had by all.

A Picture of some of the fabulous ladies at Haas.

CAL Football

View from the student section. Gotta love college football, especially in front of a packed house.

The Haas experience would not be complete with a little Cal football and more importantly tailgating...good times had by all...If only Cal could put together a consistent season life would be great! :)

Birthdays!

The Annual Ken Wallace Birthday Beer Mile!

Pumpkin Carving for Christy's Birthday

Kayela and Paul fight over the Halloween candy as James is hard at work.

Redwoods-Wine Club Bike Trip in Sonoma

Warren Buffet and Omaha, Nebraska

I never thought I'd find myself in Omaha, but low and behold I stumbled upon the opportunity to meet Warren Buffet. A mere 24 hours in the state of Nebraska was enough for me, but the visit was well worth the round about trek. I have to admit I was most surprised about how humble and down to earth Buffet was...I would be a bit overwhelmed with hundreds of students coming to see me.

Haas Holiday Party at the Wax Museum
A few pics from dinner and the party

Scharffen berger

Scharffen berger Chocolate Factory

As many of you know I was never a huge chocolate fan, however I must tell you that I may have changed my ways. Scharffen berger chocolate has to be some of the best chocolate that I've ever tasted and the factory is located here in Berkeley!

Take a look at some of the picts from the factory tour I took with some friends.

Haas takes the runway

Haas shows the fashion industry how its done

Combine 240 first year MBA students with the end of finals and the mastermind of Kurt Huffman and you get the 1st (hopefully annual) Fashion walk-off!
