Grundman on Stanford
"Stanford is everything at this point in my life. It has given me the opportunity to pursue the best education in the world, to be a part of a team that has accomplished so much in the last couple of years and given me so many opportunities outside of that. I have met teachers who have won the Nobel Prize or interacted with students who are doing research to change the world. I see it as a really big door that has been opened and through it I have the opportunity to do anything.”
