Jonathan Sabatini, MBA ’12
Hometown: Boston, MA
Career Ambition: Management Consulting
About Ross: Ross and the University of Michigan, are incredibly welcoming and diverse for LGBT students. The University opened the first dedicated LGBT resource – The Spectrum Center – 40 years ago, and continues to roll out innovative programming. The large LGBT population at the University, in Ann Arbor, and in Metro Detroit, ensure that there are limitless opportunities for socializing, networking, and exploring.
Jesse Lazar, MBA ’12
Hometown: Philadelphia, PA
About Ross: Diversity is a huge strength at Ross — people come from different backgrounds, careers and points of view, and they plan to head in very different directions after school. This creates an attitude of openness, curiosity and collaboration that animates everything we do here, as individuals, as an LGBT student group, and as a whole Ross community.
Raelyn Jacobson, MBA ’13
Hometown: Palo Alto, CA
Career Ambition: Strategy Consulting
About Ross: Aside from the people, one of my favorite things about Ross is the interaction with Ann Arbor. The campus is extremely liberal and welcoming to people of all backgrounds, there is a phenomenal local food movement, and there are endless activities ranging from apple picking and football games to intramural sports, bar crawls, and a music scene that rivals any big city. As a Californian, I am constantly awed by the bright fall colors and the snow and ice sports in winter.
Jesse Sullivan, MBA ’12
Hometown: Dallas, TX
Career Ambition: Human Capital & Strategic HR
About Ross: As I was visiting MBA programs, the open, collaborative culture at Ross stood out immediately. Ross students are competitive and ambitious, but also helpful, supportive and self-aware. The attitude toward GLBT members of the Ross community has never been anything but welcoming and acknowledging.
Camille Johnson, MD/MBA ’12
Hometown: Houston, TX
Career Ambition: Increase healthcare quality and access
About Ross: I love how people are warm and open. No matter the differences in backgrounds or perspectives, there’s the underlying sense that everyone is welcome.
Cindy Lin, MBA ’12
Hometown: Berkeley Heights, NJ
Career Ambition: Director of marketing for a small-medium sized company.
About Ross: I’m continuously surprised by the student body’s commitment to diversity and openness. The class is comprised of individuals whose aspirations range from non-profit work to investment banking. Differences are embraced and membership in the LGBT community is no exception.
