Meet the blogger

Michelle Choate is a writer at heart and — fortunately for her — by profession. But just what does that mean for MIT Sloan? As senior associate director of communication, she creates and oversees all projects dependent on the strategic arrangement of words (e.g., website, brochure, and newsletter copy; alumni magazine features; marketing pieces; and now, this blog.) She’s involved in the production of nearly all of the School’s publications and spends a good deal of her time interviewing students, faculty, and alumni. We think she’s in a pretty good position to offer insights and reportage on the goings on at MIT Sloan, but you’ll have to be the judge of that.

What else is there to say about this neophyte blogger? She loves German Shepherds, George Clooney, and “Casablanca.” She’s not tall, but makes up for that by using big words. And unlike her department mates, she is not quite addicted to Coke Zero — but $100 Grand bars are another story. To discuss chocolate, Clooney, or anything else that strikes your fancy, e-mail her at choate@mit.edu.
