Favorite Thing About Our Program

I love how our program is a close knit group of individuals who are always willing to help each other when needed. I also feel we really know and appreciate each other as a whole person(including our families, interests, etc.) and not just as a colleague.

 

What is your favorite thing to do in New Orleans?

Live music, Jazz Fest, restaurants, and ,of course, parades.
