The Latino Student Organization (LASO) was my home away from home. The annual LASO retreats stand out as some of my favorite HBS memories. Whether going on hikes, salsa dancing, or sharing a meal, our retreats were moments in which we came together to connect and build community. To this day, the friends fostered through LASO comprise my closest HBS friends. We enjoy cheering each other on as we progress professionally and being there to celebrate and support each other as we reach personal milestones. [...]
