1Y Vice President
Sarah was born and raised in central Texas in a small town known as Brownwood. She graduated from Baylor University (Sic’ Em Bears) in Waco, TX with her B.A. in Psychology in 2008 and with her Masters in Social Work in 2011. Sarah met her husband, Ty, during their freshman year at Baylor. Ty and Sarah were married in June 2011. They moved to Seattle, WA for Ty’s job with Boeing in July 2011. Sarah worked in non-profit development at Warren Miller Freedom Foundation as well as the Family Development Coordinator at Antioch Adoptions over three wonderful years in Seattle. While Ty and Sarah had already planned on attending Kellogg prior to DAK weekend April 2014; Sarah was less optimistic about leaving their community in Seattle! However, after an amazing experience at DAK weekend listening to the Kellogg staff and the other JV’s talk about their insight and experiences, Sarah was ready to support Ty’s dream. So in May 2014, they decided to officially pursue the opportunity of Ty’s MBA at Kellogg and moved to Evanston, IL (their German Shepard “Pledge” in tow). Ty and Sarah now love their community in Evanston! Sarah has hit the ground running with Joint Venture involvement. She has a passion for connecting and collaborating with the JVs as well as the students at Kellogg. Sarah is looking forward to working with the JV executive team members to create a memorable and outstanding Kellogg experience for the 2014-2015 year!
Nani Gordon
1Y International Chair
Nani was born and raised in São Paulo, Brasil. She works for fashion and back in Brasil used to work for one of the top 5 fashion companies in the country and used to be the Product Head and traveled a lot for business to places like China and India. Before starting the professional process Nani met her boyfriend, Rafael, and they've been together 8 years. After a great discussion about the future they decided that Kellogg was the best thing that could happen for both and they moved to Evanston. Nani’s favorite thing about Kellogg so far has been getting to know everyone and experiencing different cultures.
Cara Gladstone
1Y Social Chair
Cara is from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She received a degree in Professional Writing and English, as well as Bachelor of Education degree from York University. Cara works as an elementary school teacher, and she has a passion for working with students with special needs. She is currently taking a one year leave of absence, and looks forward to exploring new opportunities this year. Cara met her Montreal-born husband Zavie almost seven years ago after he moved to Toronto for work. Despite being serious hockey adversaries (Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Montreal Canadians), Cara and Zavie were married in Montreal in August of 2012. They lived in Toronto until they moved to Evanston in June of this year, and hope to move back after Zavie graduates. Although Cara misses her family and friends back home (especially her dog Cale!), the Kellogg community in Evanston has certainly lived up to its reputation of being inclusive, friendly and fun. Cara is excited to get to know her fellow JVs better and to help plan great events!
