A DPH Update

I realize it has been months since I have posted anything on my blog. Here is my update:

1) At the end of January I flew to Arizona to interview for the MBA program at ASU. It was a quick trip but tons of fun. I surprised Kim (her roommate Katie picked me up from the airport and snuck my into their apartment). Here are some good times from that trip.


Notice that Grant's pizza is twice the size of mine. I'm certain he ate more than me that night.


The interview was actually not that great. They had an entire day event that included a tour, sitting in on a class, eating lunch with current MBA students, and an informational session, and then the interview at the end. I enjoyed everything but the actual interview. It just felt a little strange. But that was why I made the effort to go down, to "study it out".

The good news is that the very next day I had an interview with BYU. Which went very well, and leads me to my next DPH update...

2) I will be starting the MBA program at BYU this August. It is a full time program so I will be leaving my position at England Logistics in July. My current plan is to study Supply Chain Management (operations) and minor in Information Systems. Go Cougars!


3) The last DPH update includes my sister Kim, who I will be traveling to Italy with this May. I've never been outside of the continental U.S. so I am very excited. We will fly into Rome and leave from Zurich, so if any readers have been to Italy or Switzerland, we are looking for suggestions!

Nice blog. Hope you have a safe and enjoyable time in Italy.

Congratulations on BYU. That is awesome!
Europe...Car or train? Italy is great train travel. Switzerland is great train travel as well but I would say car is the best for Switzerland.
Italy: Rome-All of the Vatican City. The Colosseum.
Venis is very touristy, but I love it.
Switzerland: One of my favorite places ever.
Zurich is my least favorite part. Don't plan much time in Zurich. Geneva is really neat. I loved the lakes. We stayed near Lake Brienz in Oberried. Reichenbach Falls in Meiringen is pretty neat. The Chateau de Chillon in Montreux is fun. Lot of neat old churches and beautiful lakes and countryside.
Have a great time.
