Q:
What do you do in your personal life that helps you help your clients?
I "walk the talk", particularly with female clients. Women are more confident when they see other women tackling all of the challenges of life, including family responsibilities, self-care, and health, career, and personal finances.
What inspired you to pursue your career in financial management? How?
My very first client while a Consultant for Andersen Consulting was Fidelity Investments: Fund Accounting and Custodial Services. Despite being a biochemistry major in college, I loved the math involved in the financial services work!
Why is your specialty important, especially today?
Most people do not like to deal with the human side of managing other people. I like this side of the business and enjoy having a spirited discussion about how we help teammates grow and get the best work from them.
