My career began with bouts of rejection. Post Global Financial Crisis, I printed out my one-page CV and started knocking on the doors of investment firms in Manhattan. Looking for a chance to learn and prove myself, an HR manager at one of the big shops told me “my timing was simply unfortunate”.

I was discouraged, but that didn’t matter, I kept going. After knocking on more doors with no luck, I moved to Atlanta. Shortly after, I began my career at Merrill Lynch. The rest is history. 

I’m still not done, 15 years later its become more interesting than ever, and I’m still eager to learn as much as I can while serving clients to the best of my ability. It’s now more fulfilling and exciting than ever!

The next step? Well, that’s something we’ll have to work on together…
