🌟 Reflecting on the impactful second Wall Street Leadership Initiative event hosted at Columbia University on September 11th, where over 200 students gathered at Havemeyer Hall for an enriching session focused on career development and interview skills.
We are deeply grateful to our incredible speakers for sharing their journeys, practical insights, and lessons in leadership and mentorship:

and others
🙏 Special appreciation extended to Professor Tian Zheng, former Department Chair of Statistics, Columbia University Mathematics of Finance (MAFN) program director Jaehyuk Choi, and Dr. Sining Chen-Puig for their invaluable support in orchestrating this exceptional event that seamlessly merges academia with the financial realm.
